| Freezing Spaghetti Sauce? Has anyone frozen Spaghetti Sauce in a jar? I mean - just stick the jar in the freezer? It's just two of us at home, and we NEVER eat a whole jar of spaghetti sauce, so we wind up putting over half in the fridge - forgetting about it - and then dig it up later to find a nice green fungus growing on top. Never fails. Has anyone frozen it in the jar? |

| All the time. After I add the rest of the stuff, then there is too much for us then I just refill the jar..allow for the expansion, and then in a few weeks I take out and make noodles and fresh speg. all over again

Donating YT 3000 Club Member | yes, you can freeze in the jar it if it's already half used; still it is always more safe to put in a plastic container, or even a ziplock bag. |

| I freeze homemade sauce (on those very rare occasions that I make it) but we always use a whole jar so I never thought about it. To those feezing- do you think you can freeze Alfredo? My daughter loves it and eats it as a quick easy dinner sometimes when I make something a little too 'out there' for her palate. Those forgotten half empty jars are where I work on my own little science experiments. Actually alfredo doesn't grow mold but it sure can turn stinky.

| so the answer I got about alfredo sauce was that they never had much luck with freezing it because it has too much fat in it... and thats what I was thinking about home made... but Im not sure about store bought.... sorry...
