About the Author
Donna Hay is the hottest young cookbook author in Australia. While working as a chef, Donna felt that her signature style of simplicity and elegance of ingredients, preparation and presentation needed a wider canvas. She became a freelance food writer and stylist, and then food editor of marie claire and marie claire lifestyle magazine.
Donna's aim is to inspire even those with the most basic cooking skills, by producing versatile recipes that can be assembled for a fast midweek meal or a formal dinner party.

Food as good as it looks!,
By "gracejacob" (Evanston, IL USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New Food Fast (Paperback)
Don't let the title fool you- The recipes are not at all diffucult to prepare, but the outcomes are by no means simple,nor do they look "fast". The photos that accompany the recipes are beautiful and highly motivating. I often purchase cook books of chefs of restaurants that I love, but this one caught my eye and I had to have it. I had planned on giving it as a gift and then 3 other friends got their hands on it and purchased more as gifts for friends who love to cook. I still love paging through and finding a new recipe to try. Most recently we had friends over to prepare the Nicoise salad ( must admit we have made it three times in a month! )The recipe works, tastes amazing, and looks almost as good as it does in the photograph. I will be soon buying another one of Hay's books!

Highly Addictive,
By "gingercat007" (Toronto, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New Food Fast (Paperback)
I'm a loyal ...customer, but after seeing a copy of "Flavors" on a friend's coffee table, I had to have my own copy PRONTO. I went to a local bookstore and bought "New Food Fast" because "Flavors" was sold out. What a lucky break! "New Food Fast" is Fantastic. For the inexperienced cook and wannabe gourmet chef like myself, Donna provides easy to follow and short (whew!) recipes. In the past, I ordered take-out after a long work day - I didn't have the energy to fuss in the kitchen to make a decent meal. Donna's recipes are quick, the results are delicious and she's hit the mark with me -- I have definitely returned from the kitchen (and a healthier eating lifestyle) thanks to her genius. The recipes are easy to adapt and incorporate into a low-fat, low-carb diet. The photographs are coffee table book quality and invaluable to a novice cook (or any cook) who wants to know how the final meal should look. I'm addicted. I've given this cookbook to friends who have recently become mothers and don't have the time to cook. They love the book, too. I wish I hadn't bother investing in other cookbooks, there's no better series than Donna's in terms of taste, beauty, usability, results, and gift-giving appeal.

A cookbook that really works and 1 that you will use.,
By Herb (San Francisco, CA, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: New Food Fast (Paperback)
I read all the reviews on this book and I concur with them. I could have stopped and not write a review. But the book was so good that I had to put in my $.02. The book is targeted to who may not have enough time for those "fancy" recipes that takes a few hours to prepeare. this is a book for people on the go. It's for those people who want healthy, tasty, easy to prepare, and quick recipes. You can cook 2-3 of the items in a about an hour. The recipes are great for everyday dinners and lunches. the pictures motivate you too.
