Hell that's how most of my recipes are. I don't measure like 80% of my cooking. When you're baking yeah of course. But just cooking normally? Measuring is for losers. How many ounces of onions? How many you fucking got? Garlic? There's no measurement of garlic it's as much as you can. That's how I cook. Eyeball that shit and have a spoon for tasting.
Also cans are usually you know measured pretty well themselves actually. 8 oz can hold 8 oz. Not like it's any more holy to use an 8 oz measuring cup than an 8 oz can.
