Ingredients
  • 1 large spaghetti squash (1-1.5 lbs)
  • ½ cup prepared pesto
  • 1 cup cooked white beans
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ¼ cup shaved Parmesan
Instructions
  1. Cut the spaghetti squash in half. Lay it cut side down on a plate with ~2 TBS water. Cook in the microwave for 5 minutes. Test the squash for doneness, and add more time as necessary. (Cooking times will vary by microwave.) The squash is cooked when the strands come out easily with a fork.
  2. My squash took 8 minutes total.
  3. Using a hot pad to hold the squash, scrap up the spaghetti squash strands using a fork. You can transfer the strands to a bowl, or use the squash husk as a bowl.
  4. Mix in pesto, white beans, and salt and pepper to taste (a few grinds from a grinder of each).
  5. Garnish with Parmesan and serve.
