A fusion of simplicity, healthy ingredients and just-right quantities, these delicious, exciting new recipes are designed for today's growing world of empty-nesters, couples without children and smaller households.
For millions of fast-paced, modern households, the old cookbook standard of "serves four" is increasingly outdated and a daily nuisance. With more than 77 million baby boomers adjusting to the Empty Nest Syndrome, and with their adult children setting up their own new homes, there is a mounting demand for quick, easy, healthy recipes yielding fewer servings.
But cooking for two people or even singles isn't as simple as cutting a recipe in half. In EatingWell Serves Two, the award-winning editors and recipe developers for America's leading food and nutrition magazine have created 150 dinner recipes from their hugely popular "Healthy in a Hurry" and "Serves Two" columns to meet the specific needs of smaller households.
More than a cookbook, EatingWell Serves Two provides a smart guide for how to shop in small quantities, how to store leftover ingredients, keep a well-stocked pantry and use easy cooking strategies that result in minimal waste while putting a healthy, delicious meal on the table in 45 minutes or less.
Filled with mouthwatering photography and tips on shopping, planning and simple cooking for two with healthy ingredients and without waste. Full-color throughout.

Customer Rating:      Summary: Wonderful cookbook that saves you money Comment: This is a cookbook that I have really appreciated ever since I got it. I think that it has done an amazing job at focusing in on healthy cooking for a small amount of people, where the recipes aren't going to take hours to prepare. Best of all I think that my trips to the grocery store have been costing less because I use everything that I buy with less waste than using other cookbooks.
The layout of the book was what hooked me initially. There is one recipe per page in the main part and roughly half have a full page picture. I find that a picture really helps the first time that you make the dish to have a good idea what you are going for. In smaller side bars are nutritional information for the dish, and guidelines for storing any of the ingredients that you didn't use all of in the recipe.
I have made about 20 of the dishes and I think that all have come out very nicely. I have never gone to the store and not been able to fine the ingredients for the dish, which can be the ultimate waste of time after you have your heart set on making something.
I have also learned to rely on the back section about making fast side dishes. I didn't think that I would use it so much because there aren't as many photos back there. But everything in the `Accompaniments' section is so easy to make that you really can't go wrong. It has helped to make my meals well rounded.
Because I use the book so often I think that it is a good value. I'm hoping that it does really great and we could look forward to another in the same line.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Eating Well Serves Two Comment: Absolutely amazing cookbook. I love it so much, I use it 4-5 times a week. The recipes are surprisingly quick, yet the dishes are complex, wholesome and restaurant-worthy. My husband loves it as well. I was shocked to find a cookbook that combines simplicity, health, practicality and incredible taste! I hope they put out a version 2!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Outstanding cooking for two cook book Comment: Excellent choice if you wish to cook food in small quantities that is complex in interest, easy to prepare, and helps responsible food choices for a healthy diet.
Customer Rating:      Summary: GREAT COOKBOOK!!! Comment: This cookbook was recommended to us by a friend...we ordered it and were not disappointed! It is the perfect cookbook for a couple who needs quick, healthy meals that are delicious. Also, we liked that it uses ingredients that you can actually find in your local grocery store. We highly recommend this cookbook!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great simple healthy recipes! Comment: I love this cookbook. I've made several of the recipes and every one including my picky boyfriend loved them! It's a great source if your stuck in a rut and looking for something new and relatively healthy to fix yourself and/or a loved one.
