Fish and macaroni bake - freeze cooked or uncooked?

[limetrees32]

Made this last night . I cooked and ate half . Left remainder thinking to freeze and cook at a later date.
Will this be ok ?
Will the pasta soak up the cheese sauce and the dish become heavy and stodgy?
Or will it already have done that overnight ?
What do people think ?

If I was going to freeze an uncooked fish dish, I would have done it last night.

Pasta does not really freeze well. The texture is not good.

Mm uncooked fish dish ..oh dear.

I’ve never heard of this - I assume it’s basically macaronis cheese over white fish / salmon/prawns / tuna ?

im funny about fish like to know it’s fresh and kept in the fridge.

i also don’t find that macaroni cheese freezes very well you can do it but it’s not as good

I assume the fish is cooked, that you made 2 and put one in the fridge and eat one, or is the second one uncooked fish ?

if it’s uncooked fish topped with macaroni cheese and in the fridge I guess you coooould freeze it. I wouldn’t, I don’t think I would have put the mac cheese on top of the fish I think I would have stored them apart.

as you can tell I’m not sure of the fish and macaroni cheese combo. Bacon yes but fish ? And mixed together? Not sure.

no in hindsight I think that’s a make fresh and eat meal not a make double and store to reheat dinner

It depends on things you haven't told us. Did you make it with fresh or frozen fish? Did you split it into two before cooking it, or did you cook it all and then save half?

I freeze all left overs and rarely have a problem.

Theres lots of pasta frozen ready meals and while it might not have stricly the same texture as freshly cooked its not going to render it inedible

But then I dont like food waste and I love my own food so much that I wouldnt like to just chuck it, I want to have it again!

I think I'm like @soupyspoon .
I divided it before we ate it .
So cooked half and left uncooked half in fridge.
Fresh fish , not frozen.

Looks absolutely lovely, no way would I waste any of that

I’d cook then freeze. But then, I would have cooked it all then frozen the leftovers-like the recipe tells you to do!

I think it needs either less pasta or more fish .I stuck with same amount of pasta but added slightly more than twice as much fish .
Hence having another whole dish full to freeze .

@CurlewKate yeah ,I've just reread the recipe and seen this .I'm not as sharp as I used to be .
Which is ,of course ,all the more reason to read instructions carefully !
