When you say this dinner has 7 servings, how big would you say each serving is?
Sorry- autocorrect- tomato paste is not in the ingredients list but it’s in the recipe instructions to add. How much should I add?
How much tomato paste should I use? It’s not in the inpredievta list but in the recipe
Love your recipes Julia!
Question – on the printed recipe you have 4 Cups of water listed twice, but no quantity listed for the tomato paste. Any way you can update that for next time? Thanks! 😀
There might be a couple typos on this one. Says 4 cups of water twice but does not say how much tomato paste.
Looks like tomato paste is missing from the ingredients list as of now! I checked back to the video and it says 2 Tablespoons of tomato paste.
I want to try this but 8 cups of water seems a lot! Plus rotel is a brand name so what kind of tomatoes are used? this sounds so good!
