The Balsamic vinegar lends a monotone look to this easy skillet dinner.

Because I used pork tenderloin this stew does not require long cooking - so I made it in a skillet rather than a pot.

Tuna & Linguine 'Spaghetti Pie' is a rif on an old family favorite, updated and an easy main course for two.

Butternut Squash, flavored with soy sauce and sesame oil, quickly fried, makes an easy side dish for two.

Red Wine Risotto with Ground Beef & Mushrooms, another quick & easy risotto for two.

I used boneless pork chops for this and they were very moist and tender.

The chestnuts give this holiday soup a nutty, slightly sweet taste that works well with the bacon.

Shallots & cream cheese make an easy filling for these Mushroom Caps

This make a lovely, special dinner for 2 but can easily be doubled or tripled.
