Low-carb spaghetti squash stands in for wheat noodles in this updated twist on a classic pesto pasta dish.

Microwave, uncovered, on High until tender, 10 to 14 minutes.

(Alternatively, place squash halves, cut-side down, on a rimmed baking sheet.

Bake in a 400 degrees F oven until tender, 40 to 50 minutes.

it’s possible for you to also cook the squash in a pressure cooker/multicooker; see Tip.)

Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Process until mostly smooth.

Use a fork to scrape the squash flesh from the shells into a colander.

Press lightly on the flesh to remove some of the liquid.

Divide the squash among 4 plates.

Top each serving with mushroom mixture and then a dollop of basil pesto.
