Jazz up the sauce with crushed red pepper flakes, Kalamata olives and/or capers, if you like.

Place spaghetti squash halves, cut-side down, on the prepared baking sheet.

Reduce heat to medium.

Add garlic and continue cooking until golden, about 2 minutes.

Add tomatoes and their juices.

Increase heat to medium-high.

Stir in pepper and salt.

Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.
