What do couples, newlyweds, roommates, "empty nesters" and single parents with a child have in common? Like so many households today, they're made up of twosomes. If you cook for two, you know it can be quite a challenge. This is the book that makes it easy and fun!

Here are more than 125 recipes perfectly tailored to make just the right quantities for any twosome. Choose a tasty entrée like Chicken Amandine (Enjoyable Entrees), add a simple side like Roasted Fall Vegetables (On the Sidelines) and follow with a dessert such as Honey-Spice Apple (Sweet Endings). Voilà! A delicious meal for two is ready.

On days when things are a little more hectic, turn to the "On-the-Go Favorites" chapter for some great soup, sandwich or salad ideas. You can choose a recipe like Dilled Salmon Salad or, if time permits, make two recipes, like Chicken and Cheese-Tortellini Soup and Sweet Pepper Focaccia for a quick, tasty meal.

You'll find "Good 2 Know" tips with every recipe, which give you helpful ideas on easy accompaniments, special touches, ingredient substitutions and more. Each chapter begins with "Solutions for 2," chockfull of good ideas ranging from super sandwiches to desserts that are so easy you won't even need to look up a recipe. Throughout, look for "Table for 2" for entertaining ideas that celebrate the fun of cooking for two. Need some ideas for Thanksgiving for the two of you? See Enjoyable Entrees: Cornish Hen With Bulgur for some creative menu suggestions.

With Betty Crocker's Cooking for Two, you'll have a great time cooking-and enjoying-wonderful meals with the special person in your life.
