If you haven’t yet seen Giada De Laurentiis on the Food Network, you’re probably watching the wrong channel. Everyday Italian first aired in 2003 and features Giada and some of her family members whipping up some fantastic traditional Italian dishes. Though the show was coolly received by critics at first -- and Giada De Laurentiis was a bit stiff in front of the camera -- it caught stride after the first season to the point where it was nominated for two Daytime Emmy Awards in 2006 and is now one of the most popular shows on the Food Network. With the success of her TV show Everyday Italian, Giada has gone on to write three cookbooks -- Everyday Italian, Giada's Family Dinners and Everyday Pasta -- and host two new regular shows -- Giada’s Weekend Getaways and Behind the Bash. She has also made appearances on Iron Chef America (where she and Bobby Flay competed against -- and lost to -- Rachael Ray and Mario Batali) in November 2006 and the first annual Food Network Awards, and became a regular contributor on NBC’s Today Show after working as a contributing correspondent during the 2006 Olympic Winter Games in Turin.
