  • REALLY like this cookbook due to great planning ideas/tips and solid recipes
I consider myself an experienced and typically successful family cook/baker of whole, plant dominant, Most often find my recipes online instead of going to a cookbook. However, going through the last few years of busy, independent and eating out teens who are now away at college, found myself throwing out more food as it went bad because I made too much (freezer included). My skills needed to be updated to cooking for two - (absolutely DESPISE throwing away food). So have been working on improving my planning and cooking/baking skills to cook for two and this cookbook has really helped. Library is my first choice for all books, then I buy if I like as I still need room for people in my home. Have checked out several cookbooks for two and this is my favorite right now - so much so that ordered the book again by mistake as i thought the one I had here in the house was the library's - LOL! Here is why I like the book: 1) cooking/shopping tips & suggestions for 2: a) in the front of the book are suggestions for shopping, planning and maximizing groceries b) many pages include frequent test kitchen tips and suggestions at the bottom of the page 2) the recipes for dips, sauces & desserts which is nice to not have to think how to adjust for 2. Have made 2 of the recipes and "yum", will make again. Hope try one of the desserts and happy hour dish this coming weekend. 3) regular recipes are nice as well - made the butterflied or spatchcock chicken recipe which will be made again with the addition of an herb like rosemary. 4) it's not a tome of a book that one has to lift weights to pull off the shelf and open it up. ... show more

  • Great recipes!
I had taken this book out of our local library and tried a few of the recipes. The Tex-Mex Pizzettas are great. That was the first recipe I tried and the one that sold me on the book. I had to have it. All the recipes I've tried (admittedly only like 3 or 4) have come out well and are very good. I'm looking forward to trying more of them. ... show more

  • Not What I Expected from Good Housekeeping
I am a huge fan of Good Housekeeping and often see the GH seal of approval on products I purchase. This is why I am a bit surprised at this lackluster cookbook (which I have returned). There wasn't a single recipe I wanted to try and frankly, some of them required a lot more work and ingredients (with leftovers) than I believe qualified for simple, cooking for 2. Recognizing that cooking and recipes are very personal this might just be perfect for your collection. It just didn't work for me. I also purchased One Pot Magic (both new from GH) and I loved it . . . .just saying. ... show more

  • Perfect meals for 2
We now have an empty nest and learning to cook delicious meals for 2 people was a challenge. The pictures are beautiful, the recipes easy to understand and a really good variety for different tastes. I’ve doubled recipes so we have leftovers for another night so I’m not constantly cooking as well.

  • Cooking old recipes with new portions and spices!
I needed some inspiration to cook for myself after cooking for five for many years. This cookbook gave me ideas on portions and spices that are new to me. I use it all the time making old dishes with a new twist!
