Pomegranate-Glazed Lamb Chops and Carrots {Katie at the Kitchen Door}

The Great Meat Cookbook: Pomegranate-Glazed Lamb Chops and Carrots

December 27, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

The last time I saw my Grandpa Archie was this summer, at my cousin Danny’s wedding. My grandparents (and most of the rest of my family) all live out in Colorado, so I see them infrequently, at best. Grandpa Archie, who is 100% Onondaga Indian (I know, cool, right?), and not the most verbose man, is hilarious to hang out with, and the wedding was no exception. Being from Colorado, he’s also a true meat-lover, and as we were driving […]

Peppermint-Mocha Ice Cream Sundae

December 26, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

I think Peppermint-Stick might be my favorite flavor of ice cream. At least, it’s up there with Coffee Heath Bar Crunch and New York Super Fudge Chunk (and all the other Ben & Jerry’s flavors…). I think I partly like that it’s so girly and pink, and that it tastes like it looks – sort of simple and sweet and refreshing. This is certainly the time of year that peppermint is all the rage, but I love this ice cream […]

Citrus and Star Anise Salad {Katie at the Kitchen Door}

Christmas Morning Brunch

December 23, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

The week before Thanksgiving I was chatting with my friend Veronika about food traditions. She was headed to her boyfriend’s family’s for Thanksgiving and was nervous about missing her favorite dishes – a fear I 100% understand. We quickly segued into talking about Christmas, a much more important food holiday for her (she’s Bulgarian – remember her? – so Thanksgiving kind of takes a back seat), and we traded stories about what we eat before, during, and after Christmas. And […]

Baked Stuffed Apples with Maple Cream {Katie at the Kitchen Door}

Greatist Collaboration: Baked Stuffed Apples with Maple Cream

December 19, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

On Monday, I posted the richest, most decadent dessert in my repertoire – Bailey’s Chocolate-Chip Cheesecake. It’s one of my all-time favorites, which shouldn’t be a surprise, coming from a girl who has been known to order a blue cheese salad, followed by pasta carbonara, followed by creme brulee when out to dinner. (Read: I don’t know what I’d do with myself if I were lactose intolerant). But even I have limits, and as I was making that cheesecake and […]

Bailey’s Chocolate-Chip Cheesecake

December 17, 2012 by katieatthekitchendoor

No new Monday morning resolution this week. I’m still going to stick with all the resolutions I’ve created so far, but I’m not adding any new ones for a while. This is partly because of Christmas coming up, but also because I already have six resolutions going, and it’s a lot to keep up with! I figure it’s better to take a break and let these six truly become a part of my daily routine then to keep adding new […]
