Leave it to America's Test Kitchen to help you get a perfectly scaled dinner for two on the table--no guesswork required.
Whether you're in the mood for a takeout-inspired stir-fry or a more refined beef tenderloin, you'll find recipes to satisfy everyone's tastes. To scale down our favorite dinners to serve two, we've reengineered 75 recipes from the ground up, using ramekins to make individual Chicken Pot Pies and blade steaks instead of chuck to produce a streamlined Yankee Pot Roast. From easy weeknight options (Teriyaki-Glazed Steak Tips and Skillet Pork Lo Mein) to date-night-in meals (Honey-Roasted Cornish Game Hens and Shrimp Scampi), hearty meatless mains for vegetarians (Baked Manicotti and Soba Noodles with Roasted Eggplant and Sesame) to comforting Sunday dinners (Beef Stroganoff and Chicken Piccata), All-Time Best Dinners for Two offers options for any occasion.

Title: Handy cookbook
Review: I'm single and I don't like making meals that last for days on end. I love being able to make a recipe and just have one or two nights of leftovers! The recipes are really easy to follow, nice pictures, lots of variety. Will be using many of the dishes in the future.

Title: Easy Recipes in a nice hardback book
Review: I purchased this for my mother in law, since it's just herself that she's cooking for, and she loves it she said it has the perfect recipes for just one or two people and that they taste wonderful!

Title: "Do-able" recipes with great pictures for each
Review: Nice cookbook from America's Test Kitchen! Fun to look through, and especially nice for busy working, young, or older couples looking for recipes only for two! I gave this along with a smaller bright red casserole dish for a friend's Christmas gift!

Title: Try new recipes without spending a lot of dollars
Review: Great to try new recipes while not having to spend $$$. Most recipes feed 4-6. Halving a recipe doesnât always work. So itâs nice to experiment. If you donât like the recipe..at least you didnât have to buy 4-6 pork chops!!

Review: I especially like the chicken piccata, lemon-herb cod, and steak au poivre recipes but there are many others that look good that I haven't tried yet. Usually I like to have leftovers, so for 2 of us I would use a recipe with 4 or more serving, but some things don't reheat that well so I only want to prepare enough for 1 meal.. This book helps a lot with interesting ideas.
