What to do with leftover spaghetti noodles?

[Liberty]

I have a lot of leftover spaghetti noodles but no idea what to do with them. We don't want to do spaghetti again. I do have green peppers, mushrooms, and other frozen veggies. I also have mozz, parmesan and cheddar cheese. Meats that I have: chicken, tuna, shrimp or hamburger.

 

Any ideas?

either a home made tuna helper casserole thing or a similar thing with the hamburger? Use the cheese and some veggies and other stuff to make a sauce and toss with the meat and noodles.

It may sound odd, but it tastes good.

I also like to saute leftover pasta noodle in a bit of butter and then just sprinkle with parm cheese.

You could saute onions and the peppers in olive oil, then add the noodles and veggies. Once it's done sprinkle feta cheese on top. YUM! Or make a cheese sauce to go over it.

Lo Mein!

 

Stir fry your veggies with some garlic, toss with the noddles and soy sauce.

Do you have any eggs? You could make a frittata. The proporations are about as much egg as there are noodles. Heat up some olive oil in a pan, maybe some garlic, onions, mushrooms, whatever, cook them a bit then toss in the noodles and finally the eggs. It'll cook up more like a noodle pancake than an omelet.

 

Frittatas are really good for any leftover pasta, rice or potatoes.

I do this http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Peanut-Butter-Noodles/Detail.aspx substituting the spaghetti for udon. You can add chicken to make it a meal.

 

Or, you can make Ree's Asian Noodle Salad http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2008/03/my_most_favorite_salad_ever_ever_ever_ever/

This is a huge hit at our house, and you're already a step ahead with the cooked noodles - HTH

Set it into the frig.

 

Then watch my teens walk around with plates of microwaved spagh with cheese melted all over the top of it whenever they get hungry.

 

Wash the container.

We like buttered pasta. Put pasta in bowl, add a couple tablespoons of butter and microwave. I like garlic powder on it as well.
