Ray teamed up with the Food Network for the new show, which will be launching in January of 2008, along with 60 new episodes of "30 Minute Meals."

"Rachael's Vacation," premiering January 12 at 9 PM ET/PT, follows Rachael as she takes time to sneak away and have a vacation. Viewers will follow as she discovers the distant cities, countries, foods, and lifestyles that continue to amaze and excite her. On this international odyssey, Rachael's motto is "can do" travel.
