I used to pick tomatoes from my grandmother’s garden along with other vegetables that my grandmother grew in our backyard when I was a kid.
I always loved tomatoes. All things tomato suits me just fine- whether it is tomato sauce, tomato soup, cherry tomato or regular size tomato.
Cherry tomatoes are what I currently eat on a regular basis.
When I was a child, I thought tomatoes were a vegetable. I learned later in life that tomatoes were actually fruit.
I love lettuce, cucumbers and red onions, but nothing brings out a salad for me than the zest of fresh delicious tomatoes mixed in together!
I even love a big fat ripe tomato by itself.
Not only are tomatoes great in taste they are extremely nutritious as well!
Tomatoes, especially cherry tomatoes are abundant in vitamin C and lycopene.
A bonus is that cherry tomatoes are also a good source of potassium and the vitamins A and E.
Tomatoes contribute significant health benefits to the body.
I purchased myself two large containers of fresh cherry tomatoes a few days ago from the supermarket.
I cannot wait to sink my teeth into some of them once I am ready for them!
