Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil (EVOO)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 , 3 or 4 cups leftover cooked pasta
- 12 large eggs

- 1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
- 1-2 cups leftover tomato sauce
- 1 cup shredded Italian mix cheese

Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425°F.
Heat a large non-stick skillet with an oven-safe handle over medium-high heat. If all of your skillets have rubber handles, cover handle tightly in foil to protect it. Add oil and butter and melt together. Add the leftover pasta and cook until lightly browned, 2-3 minutes. While the pasta is browning beat the eggs with the half-and-half, add some salt, pepper and the parsley.
Add the egg mixture to the skillet and stir gently to combine. Allow the eggs to set up on the bottom of the pan and become firm. Top with the leftover tomato sauce and top that with the cheese. Transfer pans to oven and bake 10 minutes, until golden. Serve from the pan or transfer to a platter, hot or cold, cutting frittata into wedges. If it’s for lunch or dinner, serve with a simple salad
