Canadian Contessa?

I have a 'substantial' cookbook collection, but I would have to say this one has the most loved appearance. I have been using it for years. Splatters on the pages from many wonderful meals. I have not cooked through cover to cover but some items have become staples in our household. Grilled Chicken Sandwiches with Charmoula, started my whole family craving this Moroccan flavored mayonnaise with burgers, satays and as a dip. Her version of Caesar salad dressing is fantastic, thick and flavorful with garlic and all our guests remark on how wonderful it is and want the recipe. This is not cutting-edge cuisine, nor are the instructions difficult to follow but everything is simple, beautiful and delicious. If you enjoy the straightforward recipes in the Barefoot Contessa books, you may very well love this one.
