Look at your tomato sauce ingredient. Is it one four ounce can tomato sauce or a fourteen ounce can tomato sauce? I'm thinking it should be fourteen because I'm sure I can't find a four ounce can of tomato sauce in the store.

Recipe does sound good and I would like to make it.

It is 4 oz can of tomato sauce. Not a typo. :)

Hunts is the brand that I use.

Dish was very good. I'm still chuckling about the tiny tomato sauce cans you can buy. The only can I can buy that small is tomato paste!

Anyway, I opened up a regular can of tomato sauce and measured out the required half cup. I have enough ingredients to make the dish twice more.

I ate this as a meal instead of a side dish so the serving size in this case was one. Kept me full all day.

I let mother do the guinea pig taste test. She knew it was pumpkin but said it taste like peaches. Now isn't that strange.

Posted a pic for you. Next time around, with your permission, I'll use tomato paste.
