This is a great cookbook. Lots of great recipes, broken up into breakfast, beef/pork, chicken/turkey, seafood, vegetarian, and dessert sections. It is not a huge cookbook, but has lots of variety. The recipes do not require too many ingredients and no hard-to-find ingredients like some other cookbooks. The recipes also have low fat or fast labels (or both) on them. This cookbook also has many pictures and nutritional breakdowns for every recipe. The only thing I do not like about this cookbook is some recipes often require lots of pots and pans and sometimes too many things going on at once (but I'm a beginner cook though). However, with practice, I'm sure I'll get the hang of it. I've made about 10 recipes so far and loved every one! There was no review of this book when I bought it, so I was a little nervous, but very impressed!

I really enjoy this cookbook. It had some great ideas and good portions for 2 people. There were also plenty of illustrations which I always appreciate. I would definitely recommend this coobook.

This was a gift when I got married and could not boil eggs,over 30 years ago - to this day one of the recipes (chicken a la king) is my youngest son's favorite meal! I do hope that the recipe is still in the book! We would have starved without this well-written, simple cookbook! Thank goodness, a book for beginners!

I bought this for newlyweds and I thought the recipes were wonderful. I copied some of them for myself.

this book has such yummy fabulous recipes. makes me drool. gave as a gift and it is loves. the pics are awesome too

I bought this for my sister who is recently single again. She'll love it! This book will be great for her!

I got this book as a gift, when it was new on the market. I have loved it evr since. The recipes are delicious and the directions are so clear as to make everything in the book perfect. This book is especially good for beginners, young cooks, and single people, for when cooking for yourself is tiresome. I thoroughly enjoy this book and I heartily endorse it.

This was another cookbook I made the mistake in purchasing in haste. Once again, I did not find very many recipes I liked although this book turned out to be better than the Betty Crocker "Just the Two of Us". I guess it doesn't help when you don't like fish or very many vegetables to begin with.

This book arrived in the condition it was displyed as and arrived in a timely manner.

The Better Homes & Garden, "Cooking for Two" is a wonderful cooking with great recipes for two.
