Cooking for one can seem a hassle. Many recipes make too many portions and unless you want to eat the same thing over and over again for several days, won’t it be better to order takeout?

Klancy Miller says no! A Paris-trained pastry chef who often cooks just for herself, she offers creative dishes for the cosmopolitan palate of a modern urbanite familiar with international cuisine and tasty food truck menus.

Cooking Solo tackles breakfast through dinner and even offers zippy cocktails you might enjoy after a long day on the job. Soy-lime beef stir-fry; berbere-roasted asparagus; ginger-peach crisp. There is much to enjoy here.
