During the last few minutes of cooking, add the sweet corn to the same pot to heat through.
PREPARE THE SAUCE
While the pasta is cooking, add the pasta sauce to the cooked ground beef. Season generously with garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Allow the sauce to simmer for a few minutes so the flavors can come together.
