In a separate pan, combine: 1 can tomato sauce 1 can diced tomatoes Herbs & Spices Protein Vegetables
In our case, Protein is usually a cup of frozen cubed chicken - we buy boneless chicken in bulk, cook it, cool it, cube it, and freeze it in one cup quantities.
Vegetables is whatever seems tempting at the time - frozen spinach, mushrooms, black olives and green peppers are the most commonly used.
Herbs & Spices is another 'whatever I feel like' - there's usually some chopped garlic or garlic powder, cumin, a small dash of nutmeg or allspice, maybe some red pepper flakes, usually some selection of the stuff you'd find in a typical Italian Seasoning blend.
It's really 'start with the two cans of tomato stuff and add whatever's available / looks good at the time'. If you watch for them, you can get the cans on sale cheap.
