Best way to keep/reheat sausage pasta

Hi all
I'm an avid lurker to the Old Style forum, I have a toddler and another baby on the way and am trying to get better at cooking one meal each evening for the whole family to save myself money and hassle ;)

Tonight I'm making sausage pasta (basic tomato pasta sauce with added sausages frozen ones cooked in the oven). I want to make the sauce for all of us serve the toddlers about an hour and a half before we have ours.

My question, probably a silly one, is what's the safest way to keep the leftover sauce to be eaten later? Should I cool and reheat or could I pop it in the crock pot on low cook until we want it?

Thanks for your help. Saving and reheating is what I struggle with most always afraid of poisoning someone!!

    I make a homemade steak pie and when I take the meat out for the pie I tend to leave the leftover gravy in the slowcooker ready to serve when we have the pie (20 mins in oven to cook the pastry). Never had a problem doing this, I usually click the slowcooker off and keep the lid on to save electricity and might just give it 10 seconds in the microwave to warm up if it needs it.
  • Thanks for the replies, in the end I did put it in the slow cooker on low and it was fine :)
  • Sausages and Tomato Sauce, both nice one's with nice pasta. I am a De Cecco Girl are a fabulous combination that is made in the Culinary Kitchens of Heaven.
