Her dishes are often remakes of Southern-influenced comfort food, with the intention that we can have the best of both worlds. She currently consults with individuals, corporations, and restaurants on all aspects of healthy eating and nutrition while contributing articles and recipes for, among others, Nashville Lifestyles, Southern Living, Shape, and Greatist.com. Laura Lea also has a regular local cooking segment on WSMV Channel 4, where she demonstrates how to make some of her most popular dishes.

An acknowledged authority on African-American cookbooks, Randall teaches the course "Soul Food, in Text, as Text" at Vanderbilt University. She also writes country music, including Trisha Yearwood's now classic "XXX's and OOO's (An American Girl)."
