My favorite is Donna Hay (Fast Fresh and Simple, is her motto). Her Australian accent makes her even more charming. Oh, and I cant' forget Buddy, the Kitchen Boss, he's fantastic, his recipes look so delicious. And his Italian accent is delicious as well. In fact, I never make the recipes, but it's always nice watching them.
