Spaghetti for dinner.

Wanna hear the awesomest thing I just read about pasta?
BBC News - Is reheated pasta less fattening?

Basically, pasta that has gone cold is less fattening because the body treats it more like fiber and it doesn't spike glucose levels. But even better - because who wants cold pasta? - it's even more so when reheated! So in essence, reheated pasta is less fattening than freshly cooked.

I love love love pasta, so this news was like Christmas for me :D

Hahaha, VERY timely. Did I mention I'm having leftover mac&cheese?

That cheese sauce slathered all over it probably didn't get any less fattening though... :D

YES!!!!!
 
You know that the very day I read that article, I went home and cooked a bunch of pasta, then put it in the fridge for the next day :thumbyo:

And when you flash boil it, it tastes just as good as if it was cooked fresh.

But yeah, there hasn't been any studies yet on whether or not reheated cheese and butter is also less fattening ;)
