No matter how much you love pasta, there are times when you’ll realize you’ve boiled too much after it’s too late. Once that happens, you can go down two different paths—throw the leftovers away or put them to some good use. Food waste shouldn’t be an option because there are many delicious dishes that you can make with leftover pasta, including these three.

Pasta Salad

Pasta salad is the best of both worlds and you don’t need freshly-boiled pasta to make it delicious. Pasta should actually be cold when you’re making this salad, so using leftovers makes total sense when it comes to this tasty dish.

Pasta Frittata

Frittatas are traditionally an egg-based food, but how about adding some pasta to the mix and making the ultimate Italian dish? Leftover pasta will do just fine and all you have to do is sauté your pasta in a pan with some beaten eggs and a drizzle of oil.

Pasta Bakes

Pasta bakes are an extremely popular take on your favorite dish, and making them with fresh pasta is not a must. Leftovers will do just fine, and your baked feta pasta will taste equally delicious if you make it this way.
