Pasta recipes to batch cook and freeze

With all the best will in the world, we don’t always have the time (or inclination) to cook from scratch – right?

And once you’ve made your favorite pasta recipes, it’s difficult to eat store-bought versions.

So when you do have the time, make the most of it and batch cook and freeze our vegetarian pasta recipes, so you’ll always have them when time is tight.

Our veggie lasagne is the perfect pasta recipe for making ahead and freezing, also try making our marinara sauce which is a delicious tomato sauce, you can freeze it and so all you have to do is to cook the pasta and toss it in the pasta sauce.

If you’re someone who dislikes washing dishes (does anyone actually like it?) then try our one-pot pasta in pink sauce, as it suggests, it’s all made in one pot and boy, does the pasta sauce taste good!
