This is where you can post your challenge on tomatoes and how you added them more to your diet. It can be trying a new recipe or how you added them to your diet. The goal is three times this week.

    Day 2 - Chopped up some grape tomatoes and added to some whole grain rice. It wasn't bad but didn't add too much. I might do it again if I am trying to use up some of these tomatoes but wouldn't go out of my way to add them. I also ate some of them by themselves and with cucumbers with no dressing of any kind and that wasn't too bad. I could see myself doing that again. Especially since the dressings I would normally put on them have a lot of sodium.

    Picked up a really nice container of cherry tomatoes today and had them with my salad at lunch. They will be there the rest of the week just because but I'm doing three different things with them to make this count!

    Not as original but had pasta with tomato sauce yesterday. I don't like tomatoes that much but my husband loves them. On Saturday I am going to make a recipe I saw a long time ago. Tomato slices with mozzarella cheese melted in oven. Will post picture.

    Tonight I had tomato sauce with broccoli slaw instead of pasta. Very filling.

    Added some Cherub tomatoes into the pan when when I was sauteing tilapia in Pam spray and lime juice. I roll the tilapia in flour, garlic powder, lemon pepper, Old bay seasoning, and orange peel. Added a little favor and lots of color. Next time I might saute spinach and the tomatoes together, then cook the fish.

    I made stuffed shells and snuck in spinach and blended cauliflower into the filing then topped them with a red sauce. My family didn't even notice the extra veggies!

    Had a lovely ripe cherry tomato. Sinus headache n hayfever kicked in 20 mins later. This human guinea pig is trying to find the cause of her hay fever like reaction to some foods. Doctor suspects is an intollerance to histammines. You guessed it, tomatoes have a lot, particularly ripe ones. Cooked should reduce the histammine levels so will try that later in week. Viva la Roma!
