PrintCan I freeze pasta?
I have a pasta dish with cooked whole-wheat pasta, cooked bison sausage and cooked broccoli. Can I freeze this? I've never tried to freeze pasta...

I freeze serving size portions of leftover lasagna and macaroni & cheese all the time and have never had a problem.

Ditto - I freeze portions of pasta a lot for my husband's lunches. No worries - and in fact, I think whole wheat pasta might even freeze better than the traditional white kind.

Thanks for the advice! Much appreciated.

When I wonder if I can freeze a partiular food, I try to remember if I've ever seen it in the freezer section of the grocery store, either alone or in a frozen meal. If they can do it, I can do it!

at first i wanted to say no but people freeze baked ziti and lasagna all the time. maybe freeze any extra sauce seperate so when you heat it up it isn't as watered down. you can have fresh yummy sauce for the pasta.

You can also freeze fresh (uncooked) pasta. I get 2-3 kinds from the pasta shop, and keep them in the freezer until I want them.
