[quote=Anonymous]Gross food makes gross leftovers, but tons of good food makes good leftovers.  I am an awesome cook, and I definitely make generous quantities of things with the idea that they are available to anyone who wants them for a delicious and effortless lunch or snack the next day.  Chili, lasagna, homemade mac and cheese, grilled sausages or flank steak -- they all get eaten happily in my house.

I think presentation is a major issue.  Some people just shove leftovers into the fridge in their original serving dish, or dump them into any grubby receptacle and they look really unappetizing.  If I have leftovers of something good, I make a point of transferring whatever it is to a smaller dish.  You open my fridge and you see a clean, covered Pyrex dish that is just the right size for the amount of lasagna, chili, or whatever is left over.  So much better than opening the fridge and seeing a dirty 9x13 dish that has food in one corner of it, which is what my MIL does. : (
