Spaghetti Squash With Pesto And Parmesan Recipes

EASY SPAGHETTI SQUASH RECIPE WITH PESTO

Steps:

• Cook the spaghetti squash: follow Roasted Spaghetti Squash or Instant Pot Spaghetti Squash.
• Allow the squash to cool slightly, then use a fork to scrape out the squash into "spaghetti" strands. Place the noodles in a colander or strainer and rest for 10 minutes to remove any extra moisture.
• In a bowl, combine the pesto, Parmesan, and squash noodles. Toss until well combined. Taste, and add additional salt or pesto as necessary. (Leftovers store in the refrigerator for a few days; you may have to refresh the flavor with additional pesto.)

• Bake the squash until fork-tender, about 25 minutes. Let rest for 10-15 minutes, until cool enough to handle, then shred in insides into strands with a fork. Set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high. Add the mushrooms and sauté until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic, thyme, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and black pepper, then sauté until fragrant, about 1 additional minute.
