Try mixing the cooled pasta with Italian dressing and chopped bell pepper, onion, tomato, black olives and plenty of parmesan cheese. There are more recipes above. Have fun!

Answer 2

I cook everything in my microwave, except the thanksgiving turkey. To cook pasta, use a large microwave proof bowl, fill with water (not to the top, leave an inch or so), run for 3 or four minutes, than add pasta.

A good measure to use is two parts water for every one part pasta.

There are tons of great recipes on the internet. see the link I have provided below.
