Im looking for recipes that are healthy, but you only need to make one serving maybe two. I see all these tasty things but the servings are 4 or 6 and I know that would make it a lot harder for me to portion control. Any suggestions?

    I had this trouble a lot when I lived on my own. I bought a bunch of Tupperware containers and would immediately serve out portions when I made something that had 4-6 servings and stick them into the fridge/freezer.

    A lot of recipes can be halved or quartered. Get some largeish ramekins and they can be used for tiny casseroles. Recipes that call for items like 1 egg can be gotten around by using egg beaters as an egg substitute. Use a smaller pan for smaller servings.

    Other than that, I used to make a lot of sandwiches and salad because they were easy and self contained portions.
