2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 bell pepper (any color), cut in strips
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup flour
1 cup milk
1 cup fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided
1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
DIRECTIONS:

TIP:
(If you break the spaghetti in half before cooking, it makes serving the dish easier).
