Possible to cook pasta in a microwave?

I've recently become a HUGE fan of fresh pasta (made myself - 3/4 cups flour+1 egg) - but I can't really eat it at work since all we have is a microwave and fridge. Is there anyway to "cook" fresh pasta noodles in the microwave (possibly by adding water to a dish and cooking it for some amount of time)...does anyone have any suggestions.

Alternatively, could I make excess fresh pasta, cook it home then refrigerate it and reheat at work? If so how?

Thanks!
 
Yes, you can reheat pasta. I do it often by adding just a bit of water.

Yes, you can cook pasta in a microwave. Buy a box of Pasta-Roni and read the directions on the box. My favorite is Olive Oil and Garlic Pasta-Roni.
 
I guess you'd have to try it first to find out. Your best bet would be to cook it at home, then reheat it at work. Otherwise, maybe you could boil some water in a separate container in the microwave, then pour it over the pasta and let the pasta sit in the water for a bit (like you would with instant ichiban). That's my best suggestion!
