I almost always have left overs... I hardly ever cook less than three
meals worth... I really don't like cooking every day, and since I'm
cooking anyway it's no biggie to choose a larger pot... cook enough
for the next day and then a couple three days worth for the freezer...
just the clean up time saved alone is worth it. I clean one pot and
you clean six... of course you mostly eat out, which is the real
reason some folks don't have left overs.
