I really recommend this book for two reasons. Of course first of all, the taste of the things we've made has been top rate. Secondly, the portion sizes are more appropriate for two people, before we used to halve the family sized recipe. This book gives recipes for four muffins instead of twelve, which saves the waistline. Enjoy

Awsome Cookbook

I own the '09, '10 and '11 editions and I can't wait for next year's. Each one has a wide variety of recipes that you never thought could be scaled down for two. I'm thrilled to be able to make the small amounts of hummus and caramel dip from this cookbook. Past editions have lemon curd, mango chutney, and ranch dressing among other things. The new vegetarian section is lovely and I would welcome more of those dishes (hint: a cheese enchilada recipe!). However, I felt cheated on the dessert section; they've included savory baked goods which is fine but I was hoping for more cakes and perhaps a cinnamon buns recipe. Oh and if they include more pear desserts in the future I'm going to scream! I also don't think they should include a "dinner off the grill" section on every edition.
Anyways, here are the recipes I've made so far from this book: black bean burgers, chocolate pots de crème (great), tiramisú, eggplant casserole, white spinach lasagna (note: I had to read the instructions more than twice on this one and then they expect you to bake the lasagnas in mini loaf pans. I didn't feel like cutting up all the noodles to fit the pans so I baked it on a regular loaf pan instead and it came out just fine. It feeds more than 2 unless you're really hungry), zucchini/tomato/ricotta tarts (great), orecchiette with broccoli rabe and beans, pan-roasted chickpeas with garlic/parsley paired with tomato/scallion/lemon couscous. You'll be in for a treat every time you try a recipe from this cookbook!

A great date idea!

If you love to cook, but don't have a big family or group to cook for this is a fantastic book. The recipe's are delicious and manageable for two people. I found the recipe's are less involved than the regular America's Test Kitchen steps, which is great to have good quality food for 2 that doesn't take as long. It is a great idea for a date night.
