Oprah Winfrey to launch cookbook next year

Talk show host Oprah Winfrey is releasing a cookbook titled Food, Health, and Happiness: 115 On-Point Recipes for Great Meals and a Better Life.

The 62-year-old has penned the book and will release it on January 3, 2017.

“As long as I can remember, I’ve been the kind of person who wants to share the things that make life better,” Winfrey told People magazine.

“When I come upon something useful, something that brings me pleasure or comfort or ease, I want everyone else to know about it and benefit from it, too.

“And that is how this cookbook came to be. It’s my life story — the lessons I’ve learned, the discoveries I’ve made — told through food,” she added.

Recipes include turkey chili, farro with peas, asparagus, pesto and cured olives, and sustainable Chilean sea bass with lemon fennel chutney.
