Whether you’re living on your own for the first time, a single college student, a hard-working adult, or a senior on your own, cooking for one can be fun!

Over the course of six lessons, you will learn ways to make cooking for yourself simple, discuss helpful tips and tricks to making healthy choices, and practice planning and shopping strategies. Each week, you’ll try a new-to-you recipe to learn about new foods.
