30 Minute Meals is a Food Network show hosted by Rachael Ray. Her first of four shows on Food Network debuted in the fall of 2001. The show specializes in convenience cooking for those with little time to cook. The show is recorded live-to-tape, with Ray doing almost all preparation in real time. The show was awarded an Emmy for Best Daytime Service Show in 2006. A common feature on the program is the creation of new versions of classic dishes, some of which are traditionally slow to cook. Ray focuses on creating meals in less than 30 minutes. Ray has also done two specials with the title Thanksgiving in 60, based around the idea of a one-hour Thanksgiving dinner. Each episode Ray opens the show by saying "Hi there, I'm Rachael Ray and I make 30-minute meals. Now that means in the time it takes you to watch this program, I will have made a delicious and healthy meal from start to finish."

BlackJack_B A long time ago when I got my satellite dish, Food Network Canada was one of the more popular channels I would watch and 30 Minute Meals was one of the shows I would watch. Host Rachael Ray cooks up some very good meals with all sorts of themes and she indeed has them ready by the end of the show. Many of her meals are quite good and she was at one point fun to watch...However, as a Canadian, we have access to programs from all over the world. While Food Network U.S.A. has mostly American programming, the Canadian version has programs from Canada, the U.K., Australia, Japan (Iron Chef) and the U.S. I seem more comfortable watching the cooks who don't rely on over-the-top theatrics or glib personalities (and many of them aren't the Americans). My problem with Ray is that she seems to have some phony mask on; as if she is trying to sell us that her personality is the real deal. However, the fact that a 37 year-old woman thinks that acting 20 years younger on T.V. is cool to everybody isn't the case. The novelty has worn off and now it is painful to see her act like a Valley Girl. It kind of reminds me of Tiny Toons' Babs Bunny, who needed to be a poser to stand out among the otherwise cooler characters at the Looniversity.Still, the show is pretty good and if you can stand dealing with her mannerisms, giggles, and saccharine personality you'll pick up some good recipes. Otherwise, Ina Garten, Giada DeLaurentis, Mario Batali, or even Emeril (who is genuine in my book) are better and if you live in Canada there are even more good choices. If you really need to see Rachael, just watch $40 A Day or her other new travel show. Here, she fits in better.
ArcticShadow Rachael Ray makes some decent meals for the amount of money spent. However, she is a very annoying. Her vocabulary is loaded with unusual abbreviations and her own slang. She uses words like "fryolator" , "EVOO" , "sjhuzzjh" , "yum-O" , "delish", and whatever else she can make up. And she uses these strange words much too often. Rachael's choice of clothing could be a lot better also. A positive point for Rachael is that she can make some good meals quickly.This show would be good for those who don't want to spend a lot of time or money cooking, and who can tolerate her quirky behavior.
TimothyP I have no doubt that Rachael Ray is a fine cook, but she's just too damned perky. I can't stand watching that ever cheery mug grinning like a maniac at the camera. If I flip the channel and unexpectedly see her face, I'm put off my feed for a week, which is exactly the opposite of what the food network is supposed to do, isn't it? I honestly don't see her appeal. Not to mention the fact that I don't have anyone to keep my fridge stocked with just the perfect ingredients and fresh herbs that she seems to chop and use constantly.Again, I'm sure she's a wonderful cook, and might be just fine in private, but her public persona annoys the expletive deleted out of me.
lilblig7 30 minutes meals is a very good cooking show with one of the most popular hosts on the Food Network(Rachael Ray). She shows you that a good meal can be made very quickly and it's better than eating out at a fast food restaurant. She has very good tips that she adds in there and she crosses many kinds of food types. Most of the dishes look good to eat she uses food that you might not of heard of. I don't know if she really does it for only 30 minutes or if she cheats any time she looks kinda rushed sometimes so some dishes might take more than 30 minutes for the average cook. The only I don't like about the show is that Rachael gets corny every once in a while. Everything is perfect for her and she has the perfect family and the perfect childhood. I get very mad and sometimes I want to change the channel, but corniness aside shes a very good cook and it's a show worth watching.
