Get a big deep fryer. Fill it with lard and heat to 375F. Take the pan with
leftover spaghetti and immerse it in the hot oil. Fry for one hour, then
turn off heat and leave pan in fryer. Enjoy dinner. (Do not eat any fried
non-stick coating which may float to the top.)

I'll give you the benefit of doubt: you might not be a troll after
all.

If you prepares asauce for the spaghetti, you can wet the leftovers
with a bit of that. If for some reason you can't or don't want to, use
a little bit of cooking oil.Jerry

I wouldn't use spray but follow the same procedure with favorite oil to
saturate it.

Nuke it for a minute or two at perhaps 50%, depending on the portion
size, to reheat hot and kill off any bacteria.

Are you for real? Spaghetti left in the pan wouldn't be safe to eat. Drain
it, toss it with oil and refrigerate. Or toss it with the sauce and
refrigerate.

After poker and waking up the next day I woke on my friends sofa and the
two aluminum pans of garlic and clam spaghetti were there on the kitchen
counter for me to feast on! I ate two more cold plates of it.

And here I am!!! Alive and well some 30 years later. :9

LOL!

I'm assuming they had placed the pan in the refrigerator.

To the OP: addition to the other suggestions, you could switch
to a different shape pasta such as penne. It does not clump up
as badly as spaghetti does.

Heat a few oil in a skillet, add the spaghetti and give them a quick
stir-fry over high heat. They get some nice crispyness.
