Meet Paula Deen
Culinary icon Paula Deen is a selfmade entrepreneur who learned her savory secrets from her grandmother. She started her career in the food industry with a small catering company called The Bag Lady, but business quickly outgrew her home kitchen. Taking a leap of faith, she opened her first restaurant, The Lady and Sons, which has since become a tourist hot spot in Savannah, GA. With her huge personality, delectable recipes and heart of gold, Paula next found herself in talks with TV execs after a friend introduced her to some influential people in the business. The rest, as they say, is history.
In addition to her television success, Paula has sold more than 11,000,000 copies of her 14 cookbooks and launched the Paula Deen Network, an interactive digital portal that combines cooking, lifestyle and game shows with great recipes, meal-planning tools and more.

Cogatulatios!
My love for fried food is documented in every one of my cookbooks, and just rattling off some of my favorite dishes—fried chicken, fried green tomatoes, fried okra, and fritters—it makes my mouth water y’all.
It’s no secret that over the past few years I have been bringing healthier food into my life. After having lost 40 pounds, I want to maintain my trim figure, so I have been avoiding fried foods. However, I will never, ever completely give up my favorites, so I limit my Southern-fried treats to one day a week. This is challenging, because so much Southern food is fried.
When I was introduced to air-frying, I was skeptical. I honestly didn’t fully understand the concept: no oil, less fat? But what about the crunch and texture I love from frying? I was pleasantly surprised when I tried the air fryer for the first time. I prepared my favorite recipe, and I tasted the same delicious flavor I know and love—and the food was crispy without the oil! Testing one recipe after another, I found that the air fryer is a healthy and easy alternative to preparing a variety of recipes that call for frying.
I’ve worked with my team to create a larger air fryer that is easy to use and will cook fantastic meals. Grill, bake, or fry, this air fryer does it all and is the answer to preparing quick and healthy meals. I now can enjoy my favorite foods more often without feeling guilty.
I’m staying on a healthy track cooking with my air fryer, and I encourage y’all to do the same. Thanks for your purchase, and I know y’all, too, will love the great recipes in this booklet to get started.
Love and air-fried dishes,
