Make Every Day Delicious: RFD-TV’s Tammi Arender Releases New Cookbook, ‘Dishes and Devotions’

She joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to share more about her new cookbook, “Dishes and Devotions: Make Every Day Delicious,” which recently hit #1 in Amazon’s Cajun & Creole Cooking category.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (RFD-TV) – A familiar face on the Market Day Report is celebrating a major milestone. Reporter and baker Tammi Arender has released her first official cookbook, “Dishes and Devotions: Make Every Day Delicious.” The collection blends Southern flavor with heartfelt storytelling and faith-based inspiration — and it recently reached number one on Amazon’s Cajun and Creole Cooking category.

Arender joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to share more about her new project. In her conversation with RFD-TV News, she reflected on how the idea for the cookbook began, why the project holds such personal meaning after years in the making, and shared some early reader responses — including the momentum on Amazon and heartwarming feedback at a recent book signing.

Tammi also discussed her decision to pair recipes with devotionals and stories, explaining why weaving faith and narrative throughout the book was just as important to her as the dishes themselves, and shared what she hopes readers will take away from the cookbook.
