Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 spaghetti squash
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 cups fresh basil
½ cup extra virgin olive oil, divided
½ cup vegetarian parmesan cheese, grated
2 cloves garlic
¼ cup pine nuts
½ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon oil
1 lb mushroom, sliced
1 cup asparagus, cut in half
1 tablespoon garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400ºF (200ºC).
  • With a sharp knife, slice the squash in half. If the squash is too tough, puncture in several places forming a dotted line around the squash. Microwave for 3-5 minutes to soften. Allow to cool before cutting in half.
  • Scoop out the seeds, brush with oil, and sprinkle with salt, and pepper. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until a fork can easily pierce the skin.
  • Meanwhile, in a blender combine basil, olive oil, vegetarian Parmesan cheese, garlic, pine nuts, and salt. Set aside.
  • In a pan add the olive oil and garlic over medium-high heat, sautè 30 seconds-1 minute, add in mushrooms and cook for 3 minutes. Add asparagus and stir until cooked.
  • Remove squash from the oven, with a fork pull at the edges to produce that stringy "spaghetti" quality until you've completed both of them.
  • In the mushroom and asparagus pan combine "spaghetti" and pesto and mix. Return to the squash and serve with or without plates. Garnish with parmesan.
  • Enjoy!

This recipe was a disappointment. The spaghetti squash was undercooked and the pesto sauce was bland.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more garlic and maybe some red pepper flakes.
