Welcome to Coming for Dinner
After nearly 20 years of cooking and having people pester me to write a cookbook, I finally did. Though, since I don't own a restaurant or have a TV show, getting published is a bitch. Well hey, I'm also a geek, so I wrote a database, and refined the recipes, and, here you are. I hope these recipes help you feel more confident about cooking and coming up with new ideas, and that you don't just have people coming for dinner but staying for breakfast as well.

Cooking for One
Personally, I find cooking for one to be one of my least favorite things in the world. Apart from the constant reminder that you're eating alone is the fact that it takes up far too much time, and that unless you spend an inordinate amount of time planning, it winds up not being as cost effective as it could. However, at a certain point, frozen pizza and Chinese takeaway start getting old, and a home-cooked meal is needed, if for no other reason than the Zen of spending a Sunday afternoon cooking some things that will take you through the middle of the week. Here are a few meals that may not make cooking for one any more sexy and fun, but at least they make for good leftovers.

German Chicken and Crispy Potatoes
Super easy, comfort food, and not a hell of a lot of prep. But oh-so-good...

Stuffed Bell Peppers
Again, not so hard to put together, and truly awesome.

Easy Spaghetti Sauce
Far better than anything you're going to get out of a jar.
