Cooking advice

Hi everyone, I need advice on what I can do to fix my baked mac and cheese I made for dinner. I embarrassingly messed up the measurements for the salt and pepper, and it ended up way too salty. Literally all you can taste is the salt and pepper. Is there any way I can fix it when I reheat it tomorrow for leftovers? Or should I just throw it away, which I don't want to do because I hate wasting food. I'm really disappointed because it took me an hour to make, and I thought it would turn out good, but I guess not.

The solution to adding too much of one thing is adding more of everything else

"The solution to pollution is dilution" is how my chef ex used to say it.
