Side dish or main? Depends on how much wine and water you add, and
how long you simmer it. At least four. -aem

In our house, maybe 6--8 portions. It will cook down somewhat. We don't
like pasta swimming in sauce.

None, in our house, unless you add substantially more garlic.

It will make a bit more than a quart which should
serve 4 generously or 6 adequately, IMO.

The tomato in one 28 oz can of tomatoes serves four very conservatively. I'd
leave out the tomato paste and the green pepper. Do a simple sauce like
Marcella Hazan's most basic tomato sauce. All will be happy.

This is the other Marcella Hazan tomato sauce recipe we usually use,
http://www.cookstr.com/recipes/tomat...ped-vegetables
though the Marcella Hazan recipe for sauce with onion only, especially with
a slug of butter is great.

And more oil: 2-3 Tspoons would get lost in 2 cans of diced tomatoes and all
the other ingredients.
Then it would be enough to dress 6 to 8 pasta servings, and my average is
around 60g of uncooked pasta per serving.

I'd serve cheese on the side.

How many it feeds is totally dependant on what the sauce is served
with and appetites. For me that's enough for 1 pound pasta (3-4
portions), 6 meata balles heros, 6 eggplant/veal parm. I would double
the recipe and freeze the left overs... actually if I'm going to
bother I'd prepare 6 times that recipe and freeze 1 pt containers.
