Add to 6-quart slow cooker, then stir in ½ cup of water
Add tomato sauce, black beans, bell pepper, shredded carrots, chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, garlic, chili powder and ¼ tsp. salt
Use a small, sharp knife to pierce one 2 lb. spaghetti squash, making about 10 (½-inch) vents for steam to escape
