I made pasta with a lovely tomato and veggie sauce topped with sausages for dinner last night.:D

There was extra pasta left so I put it in tupperware in the fridge for tonights dinner (OH is rugby training).:T Having looked at it its a little dry - how can i spice it up make it more tasty??????

All ideas gratefully considered! :beer:

You can use it in a frittata - fry onion, peppers, mushrooms etc. Add the pasta and top with beaten egg. Cook till set and finish off under the grill - with some grated cheese if you like

Whenever I have left over pasta (not often with my bf), I bung it in a frying pan with eggs, salt, pepper, maybe some salami (you get the idea) and make a kinda pasta omelette. Got the idea from egg fried rice, might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I like it!

I'm a little confused, is it just pasta you've got left or the topping as well?

If just the pasta:

a) I'm not a chef, but I'd probably go for some kinda pasta bake. Bit of white sauce, tuna, sweetcorn, cheese, get it all mixed up well and I doubt you'd notice the pasta being a little crunchy.

b) surely a portion of pasta only costs like 6p anyway?

If the other stuff too:

idiophreak - It is the pasta mixed with a veggie tomato sauce (sorry I should have said that!).

I hadn't thought of turning it into a bake - might just pour some cheese sauce on it.....

but then fritatta sounds yummy too!
