I'm making an evening simcha and I would love to make the food in advance so I'm not so busy with it on the day. It's dairy- pastas, salads,maybe a soup /rolls. Can I freeze sauce for pasta?

A tomato based sauce, yes.
A milk/cheese based sauce doesn't freeze so well.

Is it only soups and pasta?
What about mini pizzas, lasagna, quiches, focaccias, borekas with cheese and spinach wrapped in filo?

For my son's chalaka one of the things I served was creamy mushroom sauce - I make without cheese but the recipe says you can add. (if you want fancier or a choice you can change the mushroom to salmon) I made it that morning or the day before and mixed it with the pasta in a foil dish, heated it up on a hotplate for the party. From the compliments I got, it was a hit with the adults.
