Lindsay Duncan in Food on Sep 7, 2017

Whether you’re off to school for the first time, got a job in a new city or just prefer to live on your own, we all go through periods where we only cook for ourselves. The problem is, most recipes are written with at least two or more people in mind. When you don’t want to keep eating the same thing over and over again, this can be frustrating. But have no fear! Forkly is here to help you out. Here are ten meals written specifically with you single ladies and lads in mind!
