    Oh geez, when I'm cooking, most tomato products are interchangeable. :P It just changes the texture a bit.

    have you got a load of tomatoes? its easy to make yourself :D or tomato juice? if so mix it with the puree, just using puree wont really make a sauce, they'll be more dry but just as good :D turn it into fajitas instead (also healthier)

    If you have tomato puree or tomato paste with a little water you can certainly substitte. I would just make do with what I had. Tomato puree I would probably sub 1:1 for the canned tomatoes.
