The Kitchen is celebrating Mother's Day with recipes made with love! Geoffrey Zakarian updates a dish from his mom's recipe box with easy Grilled Lamb Chops and Vegetable Skewers. Jeff Mauro shares one of his wife's favorite meals, Crispy Salmon with Smashed Sweet Potatoes and a Radicchio Citrus Salad, and Sunny Anderson and Katie Lee each share a sweet parfait that's perfect for brunch. The hosts work together on a Mediterranean herb garden that doubles as a gift for Mom, and then Geoffrey creates a Lemon Herb Yogurt Pasta with herbs from the garden. Cookbook author Anna Francese Gass shares her mother's recipe for Arancini before the hosts play a special round of Try or Deny with a panel of taste-testing grandmothers.
Ina Garten has all the tricks for cooking French at home with secrets to a showstopping Summer Filet of Beef with Bearnaise Mayonnaise, an Endive, Orange and Roquefort Salad that tastes as good as it looks and an elegant, easy bistro-style Prune Armagnac Clafouti. Then Ina turns up the volume on the cheese course with ideas for Baked Brie and Warm Goat Cheese, plus an incredible Warm Vacherin.
Ree Drummond is hosting a girls' night at the lodge, complete with a tasty spread of canapes and cocktails. She makes Citrus Shrimp Nachos and Zucchini Quinoa Cakes with Herbed Yogurt for dipping or topping. Then she riffs on her mom's party favorite with Slow Cooker Fondue and doubles down on the cheese with Goat Cheese Truffles. It wouldn't be a party without a cocktail, so Ree makes Butterfly Martinis.
