Ingredients

1 (3 pound) spaghetti squash, halved and seeded
1 cup vegetable broth
1 sprig fresh rosemary
1/2 tablespoon salt
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup chopped button mushrooms
1 (28 ounce) can no-salt-added whole tomatoes, undrained and chopped
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried sage
3 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon basil

Directions

1 Combine spaghetti squash, vegetable broth, rosemary, and salt in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot). Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 7 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
2 Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove lid. Remove spaghetti squash and cool until easily handled. Scrape insides of squash into spaghetti strands with a fork.
3 Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; stir in onion and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 4 minutes. Add mushrooms; cook until tender, about 3 minutes. Pour in peeled tomatoes and season with salt, black pepper, sage, and bay leaves. Cook over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, about 20 minutes. Remove bay leaves and stir in basil. Serve over spaghetti squash.
