Cooking For One: Scaled Recipes, No-Waste Solutions, And Time-Saving Tips

"Cooking for One is a scrappy collection of recipes that coax a little celebration from the slog of solo cookery. America’s Test Kitchen recipes can be – and I say this with love – neurotically specific. This book applies that same rigor but encourages improvisation: swap half a bell pepper for a zucchini, if that’s what’s rattling around your crisper drawer. You’ll also find a whole philosophy of solo dining, from shopping hacks to leftover strategies. It’s a cookbook-shaped reminder to make time for yourself, specifically: the 15 minutes it takes to make a legitimately luxurious single-serving apple crisp in the microwave."
