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.
