Long before the Food Network, many television viewers' first experience with cooking shows was Graham Kerr's hilarious, everyman approach to the kitchen on *The Galloping Gourmet*. The chef, now 77, explains the drive behind his longtime culinary passion. "I love to cook, because now I'm on my 42,000th meal for my beloved," Graham beams about his wife, Trina. "Every meal, for me, is a challenge to be able to find a new way to delight her, and it's wonderful."
In honor of the Food Legends show, Graham is reinventing the first meal he ever made on television over 50 years ago - an omelet. "Since I'm naming this for you," he tells Rachael, "if you don't like it, it can be renamed for somebody else!"
