Ingredients
- 1 medium fresh spaghetti squash (about 3 lb)
- 2 cups water, divided
- 2 medium carrots
- 1 small sweet onion
- 9 oz sliced portabella mushrooms
- 10 oz fresh cauliflower florets
- 6 cloves garlic
- Cooking spray
- ¾ cup walnut halves
- ¼ cup julienne-cut, sun-dried tomatoes (about 1 oz)
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 2 teaspoons everything Italian seasoning
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 4 cups canned diced (or crushed) tomatoes (about 32 oz)

Steps
- Pierce squash all over with a fork. Place 1 cup water in multicooker pot; add trivet and place squash on trivet. Seal lid following manufacturer's instructions and cook on HIGH 25 minutes. Let pressure naturally release 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, chop carrots and onion coarsely. Place mushrooms, cauliflower, garlic, carrots, and onions in food processor bowl (in batches) and pulse until pea-sized.
- Coat vegetable mixture with spray; place in large, nonstick stockpot on medium-high. Cook 10–12 minutes, stirring often, until mixture is dry and volume is reduced by one-half. Release remaining steam from cooker and remove squash carefully. Cut squash in half across the middle or end to end; let stand to cool slightly.
- Place walnuts and sun-dried tomatoes in food processor bowl; pulse into fine crumbs. Combine walnut mixture with salt, seasoning, and nutritional yeast. Add chopped tomatoes, remaining 1 cup water, and walnut mixture to pot. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 10–12 minutes until mixture thickens slightly and all vegetables are tender. Chop basil coarsely (¼ cup).
- Remove seeds from squash and discard. Pull spaghetti strands out of squash gently using a fork, then discard skin. Spoon sauce onto platter, make indentation in center, and top with spaghetti squash. Serve.
