CELEB COOKBOOK
Katie Lee was
only 4 when
she started
cooking with her
Grandma Dora
in West Virginia,
learning about farmfresh
ingredients
and delicious yet
simple preparations.
Today, the cookbook
author and star of
Cooking Channel’s
Beach Bites With
Katie Lee applies
her philosophy
that “comfort food
doesn’t have to be
unhealthy” to dishes
like these pork
chops with an Asian
flair. “Hoisin is like a
Chinese barbecue
sauce,” she says.
“It’s salty-sweet and
is a great twist for
summer grilling!"
