Here's How Long Olive Garden Fettuccine Alfredo Will Stay Good In The Fridge
By Elizabeth Thorn
Many people make it a point to order extra fettuccine alfredo at Olive Garden so they can savor the leftovers, which you can enjoy for up to five days after bringing it home.
According to food safety guidelines from Healthline, you should consume cooked pasta dishes, like fettuccine alfredo, within three to five days of refrigeration.
However, the actual lifespan of your leftovers depends on how you store them. Before storing your fettuccine alfredo in your fridge, let it cool down.
Cooling your pasta down has less to do with food safety and is more about ensuring condensation doesn't affect the consistency or quality of the fettuccine.
Once the pasta has cooled down, store it in an airtight container with the date written on it so you will remember exactly when you stored it.
