I have some left over mascarpone (maybe around 100gr). what can I do with it? I don't often use it... looking for some ideas to use tomorrow, possibly something like cake could work as well?

Cheesecake! Use it as the filling. I make a frozen caramel cheesecake which is about a million calories, but there are plenty of healthier recipes out there.
Or use it for a pasta sauce?

I was also going to say - it goes very well stirred into tomato-based pasta sauces - if there's enough herbs/savoury flavours you won't notice the slightly sweeter taste of the mascarpone

oh, hadn't thought of it as a pastasauce ingredient. think I'll try that - easiest. and making a cheesecake just for myself sounds a bit too dangerous...!

I know that's a trendy thing to do - IMHO it ruins the strawberries.
I have put Mascarpone and berries on toast for breakfast before now...

I added left over marscapone to muffins recently. Best, lightest muffins ever.

I had a huge jar last year, left over.
I bought a bucketload of tomatoes and harvested basically all the herbs I had on the balcony. Made for 5 portions of 2p pasta sauce base. Chucked it in the freezers and we were happy for weeks.
