From the link given below:
"1 (6 oz) can tomato paste plus 1 1/2 cans water equals 1 cup tomato sauce - season as desired!.
There are varying amounts given for the substitution!. Basically you can stir water into tomato paste until you have the sauce concsistency you're looking for!. If it thickens too much while cooking, add water as needed!."Www@FoodAQ@Com

Diced tomatoes in a can or carton I'm assuming!?
That's more important then the paste!.
Saute either chopped garlic, onions or shallots in olive oil ( Let the oil get semi hot 1st before you add whatever your using)!.
If your using garlic, do not let it brown to much( shallots or onions it's fine browned)!.
After the onions browned( or the garlic cooks a bit) add the chopped tomatoes and a small can of paste!.
Lower the flame!.
Add a spoon of sugar( to kill some acidity)!. salt and a pinch of pepper( optional)!.
Don't use any herbs!.
If you have fresh Basil, use that instead( a few leaves)!.
Herbs will turn a good sauce bitter!.
So thats a simple but tasty sauce!.
( cooking time 15 minutes or until it thickens)!.
NO WATER, the chopped tomatoes have enough water!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
