    I hate to throw away food, so yes we save the leftovers. I would say we usually have something leftover. I tend to over cook! But I would rather have too much than not enough!

    We-- or shall I say I usually eat the leftovers for lunch, but sometimes they don't get eaten.... but I try!

    Yes save leftovers and eat them. I am not against eating the same thing for a couple nights if need be, or it will be a snack/lunch for us if not. Very rarely does something not get eaten and that would be usually if it wasnt the best meal idea I had. lol

    I was raised feeling guilty about all those starving children in Africa, so I have a HUGE problem with wasting food. Leftovers are often my breakfast or lunch at subsequent meals.
    Bruce will eat leftovers too, but insists on waiting a couple days though. So, I eat a lot more of them than he does.

    I always feel real guilty about wasting food so almost all our leftovers get eaten. Dave and I both take our lunch with us to work everyday and normally it's leftovers or something I threw together using leftovers, I always make enough for dinner for there to be leftovers so I can do that.

    I eat leftovers every day for lunch... I work 1 mile from home, so I come home to "pee the pooches" and to recycle the leftovers into lunch. I save BOAT-LOADS of money on lunches!!

    Anything not eaten by one of "us," is recycled into pooch food after about a week. Stirred into their dog food!

    On our house, we always save our leftovers but they are rarely eaten and they would end up in the trash can. I guess it is necessary that in order for us to control our food waste, we need to learn how to recreate our leftovers so they would be eaten. The average household throws away thousands of dollars in food annually. Leftovers often sit in a dark corner of the fridge, untouched until they are tossed out. However, it's a wise idea to put them to use, as eating leftovers will save money.

    A big reason why I cook so much IS for the leftovers! I love leftovers. I brown bag my lunches to work so leftovers definitely come in handy!
