Eating Well to Win

"Just when I think I knew of every healthy, tasty, fun way to make food, Rich shows me five more!” -AJ Johnson, actress

"Rich is one of those people who is fortunate enough to love what he does for a living, and it really truly shows. There's nothing he can't make whether it's chocolate chip pancakes from scratch with fresh fruit and whipped cream, to a full Easter extravaganza, to authentic down home southern comfort food, to an Italian feast fitting of white tablecloths and waiters in tuxedos. If I were on death row, the call I would make for my last meal would definitely be to Rich!” - Deirdre Maloney, entrepreneur, co-founder of BPMW, a full-service, fashion consultancy

"Never in my life have I tasted more delicious and flavorful food that's actually nutritious, as the meals exquisitely prepared by Chef Rich. As an actress, I have to eat meals that are low in fat and bad carbs that also give me enough energy to get through my day... Chef Rich does this like no one I've ever worked with before. He's simply amazing and the best around!” -Gabrielle Union, actress

"And those doggone cookies and red velvet cupcakes; they’re too good and get me every time! I’m sure the recipes in the book will have you feeling the same way. Whether you’re looking to plan a dinner party with friends and family or cook meals to keep you in shape, Rich will have you covered. Don’t just perceive him as an “athlete’s chef”...he is a diversified chef that can cook it all, for all. Rich puts his heart and soul into his dishes and I’m so glad he’s now found a way to share it with the world!" - Dwayne Wade
