Cook the pasta 2 minutes less than directed on the box (it will be very al dente, but this works since you are going to be baking it later)<br /><br />2. Put into disposable pans, with lids, so that you can take it right from the freezer, thaw it in the fridge, and pop it in the oven (minus the lid), and then later store in the refrigerator for leftovers. I also always write the instructions on top of the lid for Dave so he knows what to do when I'm not home -(such as bake at 350 for 45 minutes, etc.)Jessica Showalterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12962967210915654407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-969900436905187265.post-83796491397093432202011-02-10T21:33:39.243-06:002011-02-10T21:33:39.243-06:00No, I haven't tried freezing it.
