Single Serving Spring Recipes

Spring is one of my favorite times to cook. After months of heavy soups and roasted everything, I’m ready for something lighter. Bright lemon flavors, fresh asparagus, tender strawberries, and recipes that feel as good as the weather outside.
Every recipe here is made for one, so whether you’re treating yourself to a Mini Carrot Cake or keeping dinner simple with Baked Cod, you won’t be stuck with a week’s worth of leftovers. Just a beautiful, fresh meal made just for you. That’s what cooking for one is all about.
