Don Alexander is not a professional chef. He is a 32 year old guy who just loves to cook. Don is a technology sales consultant who grew up in northwest Indiana. Don moved up to the northwest suburbs of Chicago after college, and has resided there since. As a child, Don used to watch his mother cook for her 5 children. He was fascinated with the way she would prepare the food, cook it, and time everything just right so all the dishes were done at the same time.Don's fascination with cooking hit a new level one day when his mother asked him if he'd like to stir one of the pots. Since that day, Don was hooked on cooking. His fascination with cooking even extended to watching cooking shows.For the past 10 years Don has been making meals that he remembered from his childhood, from watching cooking shows, and meals he found in cookbooks. His only dilemma was that he was usually only cooking for himself, and all the meals he learned from his childhood, the cooking shows, and cookbooks made servings for 4 to 6 people. During these 10 years he has been taking what he has learned about cooking and designed quick and easy meals for 1 or 2 people.His passion for cooking turned into the idea for a cookbook when he realized that there were thousands of people that were in his same situation. People who liked to cook, but didn't want the hassle of making large, complicated meals for just themselves, or just themselves and their significant other.Don felt that the numerous quick and easy recipes for 1 or 2 people he had created for himself could benefit thousands of people. This is when he decided to write the book. Hopefully, this book will give an insight into Don's passion for cooking, and let people who have the same passion, but are only cooking for 1 or 2 people actually enjoy cooking. Hopefully this book will also let people who don't know how to cook be able to learn how to start cooking.
