A round-up of healthy dinner recipes for two gives you lots of easy small-portion meal options to create a meal rotation that you look forward to week after week
Sometimes it’s great to make a big batch recipe. You put in one night’s worth of cooking, and you have lunch or dinner for the rest of the week. But sometimes it’s great to make a small batch recipe instead. Enter healthy dinner recipes for two. Most of the time, I’m cooking for myself, my husband, and my toddler son. We don’t eat that much at any given meal. And we don’t always feel like eating the same thing for three more nights. Most recipes are portioned for four servings or more. I’ve rounded up a selection of delicious, healthy dinner ideas portioned for two people. Enjoy!
