For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the vegetables while they are simmering. If you don't have fresh corn, frozen corn kernels can be used. Add them during the last 10 minutes of cooking time. Feel free to add other vegetables to the mix, such as okra, zucchini, or diced potatoes. Adjust cooking times accordingly.
