Claire
Master Chef
This is an issue that started when a woman (no, didn't know her, but we live in a small town) and I happened to be walking down the same aisles of the grocery store. She said she had no idea how to cook for one; she was buying cans of this and pre-cooked meals for one. I knew nothing about her life, her background, her family. We chatted for a bit, and I told her I'd learned to cook for six, and to this day I have a hard time bringing it down to a meal for two. It is ridiculous, given that I'm 55 and have no kids. Seriously, I find it hard to make some meals for two, I always cook too much. But those early lessons die hard.
What makes it worthwhile is that I simply package up and bring a package of food to a couple of shut-in friends.
But, still, what do you recommend for someone cooking for one? Healthy, good food that isn't more trouble than it is worth?
