common recipe questions

Can I use fresh tomatoes instead of canned?

    I use this reciepe every year for a dinner I do at a club. It has been a hit since I first introduced it 4 years ago, and the people always ask me if I'm making it. This year I made for 30 servings and there was nothing left, they ate it all!
