Ingredients

An "anything goes" frittata is a delicious way to use up fridge odds and ends, like leftover cooked pasta and whatever veggies or cheeses you have on hand.
6 slices fully cooked bacon
6 large eggs
1/4 cup half & half
4 cups leftover cooked pasta, with or without sauce
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
Cooking spray
2 cups fresh baby spinach (optional)
Leftover Pasta and Cheese Frittata

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Microwave fully cooked bacon according to package directions. Let cool slightly, then crumble into small pieces.
In a large bowl, whisk together eggs and half & half. Season with salt and pepper. Add pasta, 1/4 cup cheese and crumbled bacon. Fold to combine.
Coat a 12" ovenproof nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium-high. Add spinach, if desired, sauteing briefly to wilt. Carefully add egg mixture to pan. Cover and reduce heat to medium. Cook until edges are lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes.
Uncover pan and top with remaining 1/4 cup cheese. Transfer to oven and bake until top is just set, 10 minutes.
Tip: Use any leftover pasta, greens and shredded cheese you have on hand.
