Is it OK to refrigerate cooked pasta and have it the next day? ?

Question

And I am using a microwave.

Answer 1

Sure...why not?  I do it all the time!

Answer 2

Been doing that for years.It may tend to clump into a single mass,but hey,it's only pasta,not cement! ;-)=

Answer 3

yes but you have to put in the microwave

Answer 4

Yes, you can save and eat later.

I like Pasta-Roni's Olive Oil & Garlic.  I often eat the other half the next day.  It is even good cold.

Answer 5

As long as it was not overcooked in the first place, yes. You may want to add a little olive oil to the pasta before refrigerating it to keep it from turning into one big clump. I've done this before just as a time saving measure.

Answer 6

Yes and the best way to warm it up is to just run hot water over it. That is as long as it's just pasta with no sauce.

Answer 7

Yes it will be fine, just be sure to add a tiny about of water when you reheat it or it will dry out(must be heated in a 90% sealed container too)

Answer 8

I've been eating leftover pasta for years, and nothing, and nothing, and nothing is wrong with me... me... me... yurp. LOL!

Yeah, it's fine.  

Answer 9

I do that all the time, it's delicious. I only microwave it for increments of 30 seconds until it's just right.
