I'm not sure about that. I always use it in whatever recipe. Does your recipe call for 2 cups

I'm planning on mixing it with spaghetti squash so I'll do 1 and 1 but was just wondering if you could do 2 cups

Weigh them out, 6. 3oz weighed is "a cup. " Don't assume a cup (measuring cup) is "a cup" of tomatoes -- since they are diced small, many more fit into a measuring cup than if they weren't diced.

Usually in a sauce like when making Janevas spaghezzi sauce you can consider 1/2c a cup of veggies.

Also, remember, if it affects you, that tomatoes are a limited vegetable due to natural sugar content.
