Hi, my family usually eats unhealthy foods and I usually stick with chicken breast and some salad but I've been wanting to change it up for a while now so I've been looking at new recipes. The problem is, they are all recipes serving 4-8 and 1/8 tbs gets difficult to work with. Does anyone know any websites, such as skinnytaste, that offer recipes for the lonely,yet healthy, people?

    Hi I googled and found these sites for you. Some that are for 2 people may be useful as well, if you wanted to keep one for the next day or freeze it. Good Luck, I am sure you will find some nice recipes. Sandy. :)

    My family won't eat my healthy food either so i've been having to cook for one for a while now. The easiest solution I have found is to cut the portions down to a manageable size (i.e. 4) and then freeze or store the other three portions for later, that way all of my ingredients get used before they go off and I can take it easy a few nights a week and reheat something I've previously made. This isn't ideal as I don't have a lot of fridge/freezer space, but usually enough to free a few meals!
