I had to give pasta a miss as well spiked me into the 10+ mark, but I watched Micheal Mosely's Trust Me I Am A Doctor program on SBS where he did the recooked pasta experiment.

Good enough for me to give it ago

We cook a couple of 500 gm packets of spirals, then put into portion size packets. When they are cold put into the freezer. Had to experiment with portion size tho'.

When we reheat i we put a bit of water in the packet, then nuke it in the microwave for three minutes.

I use zip lock sandwich baggies.

I mix the spirals into the sauce so I would not have a clue really.

Aaah! I like my pasta with the bolognese sauce or a ratatouille sauce with meatballs on top, unless we're having lasagne of course.
