LEFTOVER PASTA FRITTATA
This frittata recipe answers the question of what to do with leftover pasta-or what to make when you're looking for a hearty meal. When testing different pasta types, we found that long, thin strands, such as spaghetti or linguine, are ideal because they cradled the egg nicely. We added bright cherry tomatoes, creamy mozzarella and sharp Parmesan for extra freshness and flavor.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Place the bacon in an oven-safe, medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and crisp, about 4 minutes. Add the onion and garlic, then continue to cook until tender, stirring frequently, about 2 minutes more. Reduce the heat to medium-low, then stir in the cooked pasta, tomatoes and half of the mozzarella, tossing until all the ingredients are well combined.
- Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, tomato sauce, milk, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper together in a large bowl until combined. Pour the egg mixture into the skillet, then jiggle the pan to evenly distribute. Top with the Parmesan and remaining mozzarella.
- Bake until the eggs are set and frittata is browned around the edges, about 20 minutes. Let cool in the pan for about 5 minutes, then invert onto a platter or cutting board. Cut into wedges and serve with a sprinkle of Parmesan.
BACON AND MACARONI FRITTATA
This is quick and easy to prepare- a great meal with salad in the summer or with more substantial sides in the winter. I like that it is a complete meal, without the fatty crust associated with a quiche. If you do not have Cavenders seasoning, pepper will do. I use extra lean bacon medallions so add about 1/2 tablespoon of oil to cook the bacon in.

Steps:
- Cook the macaroni according to the package directions.
- Meanwhile, dice the bacon, finely dice the red bell pepper and grate the zucchini, keeping each separate from the others.
- In a non-stick skillet, start to cook the bacon (with a little oil if you are using very lean bacon). Crush the garlic clove and add to the bacon. Cook for 3 minutes.
- Add the red bell pepper and cook for a further 2-3 minutes.
- Add the grated zucchini and cook for a further 2 minutes. At this point, if the vegetables have let out a lot of juice, you may wish to turn up the heat to evaporate the juices, otherwise the frittata ends up rather soggy.
- Sprinkle salt and Cavenders seasoning/ pepper to taste over the mixture in the pan.
- Add the cooked macaroni.
- Beat 6 eggs and pour them into the pan. Cook over a low-medium heat until the bottom half is done, shaking the pan occasionally to discourage sticking.
- Place a plate over the frittata and carefully (but quickly!) flip the frittata with the pan so it lands, done side up, on the plate. Slide it carefully back into the pan and cook the underside until done. This should take between 5 and 10 minutes for each side.
- Serve hot with your choice of side dishes!

PASTA FRITTATA
This dish is one recipe calling for leftover pasta that is actually worth planning for. It's portable, it's endlessly versatile, and it's practically foolproof. Substitute almost any cheese for the Parmesan (or leave it out altogether) and toss in any cooked vegetable or meat. Make it your own. One last bit of advice from Mr. Bittman: "The key to extreme enjoyment is to make sure that some ends of pasta pieces protrude from the top of the mixture when you put it in the oven. They will become crunchy, giving the leftover pasta yet one more pleasant dimension."

Steps:
- If using leftover cooked pasta, chop it up. If using dried pasta, bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Cook pasta until barely tender, somewhat short of where you would normally cook it. Drain, and immediately toss it in a wide bowl with half the butter or oil. Cool it a bit.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Put remaining butter or oil in a large nonstick ovenproof skillet, and turn heat to medium-high. If you are using meat, add it, and cook, stirring occasionally until crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. (If not using meat, proceed.)
- In large bowl, combine pasta with remaining ingredients, along with salt and pepper (less salt if you are using meat). Pour into skillet, and turn heat to medium-low. Use a spoon if necessary to even out top of frittata. Cook undisturbed until mixture firms up on bottom, then transfer to oven. Bake just until top is set, about 10 minutes. Remove, and serve hot or at room temperature.
