Spaghetti Gets Better With Age!

 I am really excited to share this with you! There is something really rewarding about turning cold, sad left overs into something even better than they were the night before!

It started with cold, left over spaghetti, already sauced.

I baked it in an uncovered dish, at 450 degrees, turning it a few times and letting the spaghetti heat and dry out a bit. The drying out part is important if you are working with already sauced pasta and want to avoid making a soggy meal that screams  "hey this is last nights left overs, worse for the wear!"

Meanwhile, I sauteed zucchini in a just enough olive oil to coat the pan.

Adding a thinly sliced love of garlic, right at the end.
When the pasta was hot and getting a bit crisp in places I sprinkled it with grated Parmesan then spread the zucchini and garlic over it and topped it off with more cheese before sticking it back in the oven to brown on top.



Che Buono!
