I always make enough usually to feed 4 when I cook. I make a bean soup casserole that all my friends love and when they come over and I ask them if they want anything to eat they ask about my bean soup casserole. They prefer it left over because in a day or two its much better than the first day. That's true about a lot of other things too. I only serve things that are not more than two days old. I will use my vac sealer and freeze left overs if I'm not interested in eating the same things for the next couple of days. Some things just aren't good left over - like fish. I only cook enough for 1 meal when I cook it but pot roast is another story. Bottom line is, if it tastes good serve it. If its questionable then don't. If they complain...then don't feed them. Of course if you invite someone over next Friday for a chicken dinner and its Monday don't fix a chicken dinner on Wednesday then feed them the leftovers on Friday...That is tacky. Like one person said, If its a last minute thing then I don't mind serving leftovers but a planned get together is another story. I’m happily single but cooking for one can get expensive.
