Notes: Freezes great...if you want to pre-cook spaghetti and I do that all the time for crowds of people...boil a very large pan of water with salt added, add spaghetti and cook for about 8 minutes. Drain spaghetti, saving water, reboil water add more spaghetti until amount desired is cooked. As the spaghetti is done..put in ziplock bags with 1 - 2 T of olive oil and mix well to keep it from sticking. Refrigerate until you want to use it and then reheat the water to boiling ...add the spaghetti and let it cook another 1-2 minutes. Serve. Can be made at least a day ahead for a time saver.
