I bought this for my friend who is single and lives alone. This is a great book especially when you are on a budget but the meals still taste great.

This review is from: 5-Ingredient Favorites: 700 Favorite Recipes with Five Ingredients or Less (Better Homes & Gardens Cooking) (Hardcover)

The recipes all seem to be variations of one another. I you don't like one or two of the ingredients you need to eliminate a majority of the recipes. This was a gift for someone who has serious Crohn's Disease and can't eat some of the ingredients and because the selection lacked diversity she will probably rarely (if ever) use them.
