Steps:
For more heat use Rotel tomatoes or a little hot sauce.
I don't have a lid for the pan I use so I an extra 1/2 cup of water.
For more tomato flavor use 1 cup of tomato juice for 1 cup of water.
If you reheat in the microwave you need to add a little water since the pasta will absorb most of the sauce.
If you have large chunks of tomatoes mash them with a potato masher in a bowl. The ones I buy are pretty big so I do this.
Fresh corn (is the best) or frozen corn works. I use 1 1/2 cups.
Ground pork worked as did ground chicken.
