It's cold out, so The Kitchen is warming things up with hearty winter recipes! Geoffrey Zakarian's Wild Mushroom and Kale Lasagna is full of gooey, cheesy goodness, while Katie Lee Biegel's Twice Baked Miso Sweet Potatoes bring all the comfort. Then Aarti Sequeira from "Best Bite in Town" stops by to make her Whole Roasted Cauliflower with Makhani Sauce. Finally, Sunny Anderson's Upside-Down Plum Spice Cake is an easy and impressive dessert that can't be missed.

The Kitchen banishes boring leftovers with new and creative dishes using leftover ingredients. Jeff Mauro works his magic with leftover rice to make Carbonara Arancini. Geoffrey Zakarian pours an Olive Oil Martini using ingredients straight from the pantry. Sunny Anderson turns last night's steak into a saucy noodle sensation with her Take Home Steak and Garlic Noodles. Geoffrey Zakarian transforms leftover mashed potatoes into crispy Pierogies with Sour Cream Dip. Chef Esther Choi from Food Network's "24 in 24: Last Chef Standing" joins The Kitchen hosts to make her version of Breakfast Congee using three leftovers.
