Make Ahead Pasta

Cook 2 lbs. of any pasta (spaghetti, rotini, etc.) in a big pot of salted water until desired texture. Drain and rinse with cold water. Put into a large plastic container, cover with paper towel and refrigerate. Change the paper towel after taking desired amount of pasta to reheat in microwave. The pasta will taste fresh for 4-5 days if you continue to put a dry towel in each day. Our family likes a variety of toppings including veggies, tomato sauce, cheese, meatballs, pork n beans, etc. You can quickly be very creative!
