The beauty with cooking for two is that there are many recipes on here that you could cook, and then freeze half for an easy reheat and eat option on busy nights.Or cook, then divide leftovers up for lunch the following day.

Use the search function if you have favourite ingredients you want a recipe for, but good on ya for looking to expand your recipe repertoire!

2 garlic cloves - chopped
2 rashers of streaky bacon - chopped
6 button mushrooms - chopped/sliced
300ml of cream
pasta of choice - enough for two
knob of butter

Put pasta on.

Heat a bit of oil in the pan - brown garlic, add bacon, cook until crisp, add butter and mushrooms, cook until mushrooms are soft, add cream and reduce until it starts to thicken.

Add cooked pasta to the pan of sauce and mix - Season with pepper - Serve with a salad and some bread rolls.

The sauce is also nice poured over baked potatoes or steak.

Same recipes, just cook less.Use smaller amounts of each ingredient. Use a smaller pan, etc. Or cook for 4 and have a tasty lunch the next day!
