How do you make microwave spaghetti squash pesto?

Cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise, and remove the seeds and fibers. Microwave on a plate for eight to nine minutes. Let the squash cool and then scoop the insides from the shell with a fork. Mix with homemade or purchased pesto sauce and 1 cup of diced tomatoes.

For homemade pesto sauce, puree 15 leaves of basil, a small clove of garlic, 1/4 cup olive oil, 3 tablespoons of Parmesan cheese, and a dash of salt and pepper until smooth.

Spaghetti squash is a great low-carbohydrate and low-calorie substitute for pasta and can be cooked many different ways.
