I was nursing and I overcooked it Sad

What can I use it for now? It's kind of mushy, not mushy enough that I would throw it out but too mushy to use for pasta cheese and sauce.
I don't want to throw it out...................

Is it ok to feed to the kids? My kids like mushier pasta than my husband and I. I overcooked some a few weeks ago. I fed it to them and they did not notice.

What type of pasta is it? Is it something that can be baked italian style ?

for the future, if you rinse it with cold water right away, after draining it, it usually helps. I think kuggel or casserole is a great idea.

A bit late, but you can try frying it in a bit of oil to firm it up a bit. Add the sauce and cheese while frying.
