'A brilliant beyond brilliant idea' Nigella Lawson

'A genius approach to bringing joy to every meal, Eleanor gets that good food is the best form of self-love.' Emily English aka emthenutritionist

The cookbook for people who eat, cook or live alone, but are tired of washing up.

One Pot One Portion takes the stress out of solo cooking – no more dividing a recipe by four, or surviving on leftovers for three days. This is easy, effortless food that won’t leave you with a sinkful of dirty dishes.

With one-pot one-portion versions of classics like Lasagne, Beef Wellington and Apple Crumble, as well as fresh, flavourful dishes like Ginger Chicken Rice Bowl and Peanut Noodle Salad this is food tailored to suit your every mood. And with recipes paired to help you make use of leftover ingredients, this is truly low-waste, low-effort cooking.

Whether you live alone, or just find yourself cooking for one, this is easy, effortless food that will have you eating well whatever your mood.

Just because you’re cooking for one doesn’t mean that you can’t make something oh-so scrumptious. Eleanor’s recipes are fun, achievable & most importantly, downright delicious!' -- Rachel Allen, author and chef

Eleanor is 27-year-old content creator and recipe developer from East Yorkshire. Her love of food and cooking inspired her to start sharing recipes on social media; her One Pot, One Portion series - recipes for people who cook, eat or live alone, and are tired of washing up - have garnered millions of views on TikTok and a community of nearly 650K people on Instagram. In a culinary landscape that only caters for couples, families, or larger groups, Eleanor wanted to provide something for everyone left out. She believes that cooking for yourself is a huge act of self-care; her aim is to bring the joy and excitement back to the kitchen, showing solo cooks that they don't have to choose between eating leftovers for three days straight or sticking to soup! Eleanor previously worked in the non-profit sector and trained at the prestigious Ballymaloe cookery school in Cork.
