Canned Tomatoes

Canned Tomato is a pantry staple of many cuisines — from Italian sauces and Mexican salsas to stews and soups — prized for its bright acidity and versatility. It is very low in energy at 18kcal per 100g and provides modest fiber and vitamin C, making it a light way to add vegetable volume and flavor to dishes. Canned tomatoes are also a convenient source of tomato carotenoids (like lycopene), antioxidant compounds associated with heart and prostate health, and they add color and umami without much fat.
