4.0 out of 5 stars
Okay for beginners,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking for 1 or 2 (Nitty Gritty Cookbooks) (Paperback)
This book introduces some pretty basic recipes with common ingredients. Since I'm a college student living on my own, these simple recipes are a welcome respite from the usual "open the can and pop it in the microwave" mentality. Also it is much easier to find a tasty dish since this book is shorter than, say, Joy of Cooking. Still there are many larger and more comprehsive books out there that one can turn into a cooking-for-one book through simple division.

A most useful cookbook,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking for 1 or 2 (Nitty Gritty Cookbooks) (Paperback)
Okay, it's not gourmet cooking. It is an everyday lifesaver for those of us who run out of ideas when cooking for oneself. A pleasant meal every day without strain. I've given two as gifts, one to an older person newly alone, and one to a late-teener just going out on his own.

1.0 out of 5 stars
A disappointing cookbook,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking for 1 or 2 (Nitty Gritty Cookbooks) (Paperback)
If your skill level is beyond boiling pasta noodles and making a tossed salad, then this is not the cookbook for you. While it is not a complete waste, it was disappointing. If you're looking for a great cookbook for single people and couples, I highly recommend Jane Doerfer's, Going Solo In The Kitchen. It is an excellent mix of very simple and more challenging recipes, and it presents a lot of variety.
