Notes
- Storage
- Refrigerator: You can store this pasta dish in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days. However, when keeping pasta with sauce, it’s important to remember that the pasta can become soggy.
- Freezer: I do not recommend freezing this pasta -- it is unlikely to retain its same texture when thawed.
