Good times: ‘The Kitchen’ is a Saturday morning delight

- BY ANDREW WARREN

So, how are those New Year’s resolution­s coming along? They’re something almost all of us make, even if we know that we’re not going to stick with them for very long, but I guess it’s the thought behind them that counts, right?

A pretty common resolution is to find ways to save more money. After all, life isn’t getting any cheaper, and I think most of us wouldn’t mind having a few extra bucks kicking around at the end of the day. Luckily, the hosts of “The Kitchen” are on it this week. The Saturday morning talk show on Food Network is always packed to the brim with fantastic tips and tricks, and this week’s episode, airing on Saturday, Jan. 20, is no exception.

This week, the hosts are cooking on a budget, and the pennypinch­ing advice that they have can be useful for anyone who does the grocery shopping and kitchen prep. First, host Sunny Anderson (“Cooking for Real”) shows off how to make a super-affordable but oh-so-delicious meat and potatoes bundt loaf that definitely won’t break the bank. Later, the hosts break down a shopping cart and share their expert advice on where to get the best prices for some common grocery items.

“The Kitchen” really is a Saturday morning delight. Along with Anderson, Jeff Mauro (“Sandwich King”), Katie Lee (“Beach Bites with Katie Lee”) and chef Geoffrey Zakarian (“Iron Chef America”) all serve as co-hosts, and it’s easy to tell that the rapport between them is very real. Every week, the four share a few delicious recipes and some of their best culinary tips and advice, and the show’s frequent guest visitors help to keep things fresh.
