Tomatoes fresh

Description
Fresh tomatoes, a delicious and nutritious food that makes a good addition to most healthy eating plans.

Why we like it
Chemical free at harvest. Tomatoes contain several nutrients and compounds that are important for good health, such as fiber, vitamin C, vitamin K1, folate (important for pregnant women), potassium and lycopene (linked to reduced bad cholesterol, improving health of arteries and heart, and reduced cancer), among others. Added bonus: they are diet-friendly, given low carbs content and low in sodium and healthy for the skin, as they may protect against sunburns, so load up with more tomato juice in summer!

How to use
Add them to fresh salads, make salsas, pizzas, sauces for past dishes, fresh tomato soup (cooked or raw), dried tomatoes, serve as an appetizer with mozzarella and basil or match it up with burrata.

Origin and storage: Produced in Egypt. Storage: The tomatoes stay fresh the longest at room temperature, out of direct sunlight, ideally in a single layer. Very important for keeping them fresher longer, store them with the stem side down while they finish ripening.
