Any ideas on something interesting to do with leftover spaghetti besides just warming it up? It already has marinara sauce on it, so I know that limits things, but I'd like to see if anyone is creative enough to help me turn boring leftovers into a yummy dinner.
Thanks in advance!!

Sautee fresh veggies and chucks of chicken in olive oil and garlic, mix them with spaghetti and put in oven just long enough to heat through. You may need to add a little extra sauce so it doesn't dry out. This is also great if you have leftover chicken.

Nothing like fried spaghetti with butter in a skillet. Add some mozzarella cheese when it is done and serve with some fresh garlic bread and a nice garden salad.

Too bad the marinara sauce is already on it...I like reheating the plain noodles and serve with a touch of butter and lemon pepper--yummy....

Put it in a baking pan (perhaps a small bread pan if there's not a whole lot), add some sauce, top with mozzarella cheese and bake it until it's heated through and the cheese melts

What I do is flip it into a baking dish and cover with mozzarella and sprinkle with green and black olives and make a bake out of it. If you don't want it the next day, just freeze it for whenever there's no ideas for dinner. A little Parm on it and you're set! Just bake!

I would put sliced up olives and cubed mozzarella cheese on it. Usually this combination is good with plain garlic buttered spaghetti.
