THERE WAS A TIME IN MY LIFE WHEN I WAS COOKING FOR ONE-just after college, pre-career, and around the time my husband and I first started dating.

I was in my mid-20s and conscious of my health. I spent hours at the gym, but I definitely ate takeout more often than not. I always intended to eat healthy, and at the time I felt I was making good choices.

My standard diet consisted of instant oatmeal or a banana with peanut butter for breakfast, 6-inch whole-grain subs packed with extra veggies for lunch, and frozen "healthy" entr嶪s for dinner. I often splurged on delicious but expensive takeout salads, like Chinese chicken salad and Greek salad, to make sure I got plenty of greens.

My well-intentioned efforts weren't financially sustainable. My wallet was thin, my credit card statements were getting high, and I was making no headway in paying off my school loans.

So, I started hitting up the Sunday farmers' markets to inspire home cooking, save money, and impress my then boyfriend. Equipped with several cookbooks, I began working my way through standard dishes and learning to cook for myself and eventually one other. Because most cookbook recipes serve four or more, I had to cut ingredient amounts in half.

The good news: I was finding my way to better health and ultimately my career path in the health field. I had found my purpose, and there was no looking back.

Fast-forward: I am now a registered dietitian (10-plus years), a mother of twin tweens, and a spouse. I'm the head cook of our family and no longer cooking for one. But my experience and skill set have enabled me to work with dozens of single patients who have improved their well-being by learning some simple cooking-for-one strategies.

Healthy eating need not be expensive and time-consuming. I've gathered all my best tools to help you achieve better health simply, affordably, and deliciously. It takes only a little grocery-store savvy and kitchen know-how to get started on the path to a healthier you. The overall goal is to make home cooking doable and fun.

I do welcome occasional takeout or dine-in choices, but I always have a plan to keep it portion-controlled so I can incorporate leftovers into my healthy meals. For instance, one of my favorite recipes in this book is my Skillet Meatloaf, which allows for enough leftovers to make my Spaghetti Bolognese the next day.

Follow this book's guidelines for sustainable choices that won't break the bank or keep you in the kitchen all day. Don't worry: You won't be hunting around or shopping online to buy fancy specialty ingredients. Rather, you'll learn how to create tasty, budget-friendly meals using tips for keeping produce fresh, preserving leftovers, and making complete meals from them. I even provide a meal plan to help you get started. So let's get cooking!
