Baker's Profile: Sandra Lee
Popular home and food expert Sandra Lee, host of the Emmy-nominated television series Semi-Homemade Cooking With Sandra Lee on Food Network, has revolutionized the way people think about cooking and entertaining. Sandra's Semi-Homemade® philosophy was born out of the challenges she faced in her childhood. As the oldest of five children, she was responsible for caring for her siblings and managing the household finances. Forced to live on welfare and food stamps, Sandra quickly learned how to turn budget-friendly packaged foods into delicious meals for her family. These early experiences laid the foundation for what would eventually become her trademark — Semi-Homemade®.
Her background led Sandra Lee to become a spokesperson for Share Our Strength's Great American Bake Sale®. "Participating in this event is a great way for people to give back to their communities," Sandra explains. "By hosting bake sales, individuals are making a difference in the lives of more than 12 million American children at risk of hunger." She adds: "This campaign is near and dear to my heart, because I experienced hunger and a lack of food during my own childhood. Helping provide children with their next meal is a beautiful thing. I hope we can all join together to make a positive difference in the lives of America's children."
In addition to her role with Share Our Strength, this busy professional has recently taken on the role as editor-in-chief of Sandra Lee Semi-Homemade magazine. Sandra is delighted to offer Domino "Sweet Inspirations" readers an exclusive opportunity to receive a free issue of the new magazine. In each issue, you'll find delicious recipes (like Heart-Shaped Toasted Almond Sandy Cookies), time-and money-saving techniques, and tried-and-true entertaining tips. They're all possible using Sandra's trademarked 70/30 philosophy, which allows anyone to take 100 percent of the credit for something that looks, feels, and tastes as if it were made completely from scratch.
