the pasta itself will be fine, but if it's mixed with meat or sauce it may be a bit of a risk

it probably won't harm you if you're normally healthy - might not taste v nice though
edit: I've just realised Monday-Thursday is not 6 days - you'll be fine

I'd risk it. It sounds delicious.

but it depends when on Monday you put it in the fridge.
Get it eaten.
But don't hold me responsible for any illness incurred!
If it's veggie and no meat then it's fine.

I just remembered I put wine in the sauce as well, surely this can only help in the preservation!
