10 ways to make delicious dishes with tomatoes

1. Spanish-style tomato sauce Choose ripe tomatoes to enhance the sweetness and flavor of this Spanish sauce. Sauté or bake a few tomatoes in the oven with garlic. Then put the tomatoes in the blender along with the almonds, olive oil and a little balsamic vinegar (vinegar fermented from grapes). So you've got a sauce called Romesco, a delicious tomato dish from the country of gaur.
2. Grilled Tomatoes Cut the tomatoes in half, grease the sides with olive oil and bake until tender and slightly burnt. If fully ripe tomatoes are not available, roasting or sautéing the tomatoes will enhance the flavor. Heat enhances tomato flavor and also enhances antioxidant capacity by changing lycopene, a micronutrient, into a form that is easier for the body to use.

3. Cake topped with cherry tomatoes Drizzle with olive oil, lightly sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and cover the top with slices of cherry tomatoes in circles. Bake this tomato delicacy for 20 minutes at 204°C (400°F). Cherry tomatoes have many different colors that will make the dish more beautiful. Serve with a green salad for a colorful and healthy lunch.
4. Lentils with Spicy Tomato Stew A traditional Ethiopian spice blend of chili, garlic, fenugreek and a few other spices will make this vegetarian dish super flavorful. Tomatoes and carrots add a sweet flavor and provide vitamins A and C. Lentils are a rich source of iron, fiber and protein. These ingredients are also low in fat and calories. You can easily prepare this dish in about 45 minutes, by stewing lentils, tomatoes and the above spice mixture.

5. Cold Tomato Soup If you don't know what to do with tomatoes, choose the most juicy tomatoes to make chilled soup. Use a ratio of 3:1, with 3 parts tomatoes and 1 part other ingredients like bell peppers, onions, and cucumbers. If you want a variation to increase the sweetness, try combining watermelon - tomato. Both of these bright red fruits are high in the antioxidant lycopene. Because it is a cold soup, you will not need to cook, instead, cut up the available fresh vegetable ingredients, season with vinegar, oil, and sauce, mix well and refrigerate.
6. Tomato Sandwich Arrange whole-wheat bread with thick slices of tomato, delicious greens, and two slices of thick-cut bacon, then use less than a tablespoon of mayo. Thus, your one sandwich has less than 500 calories. Cut back by 1 slice of bacon if you want to get rid of about 100 extra calories.
7. Easy Homemade Tomato Soup Making your own tomato soup is very simple. Simply simmer the onions and tomatoes, and add flour and milk for a creamy taste that doesn't add as much calories and fat as real ice cream. Add a little baking soda to reduce the acidity of the tomatoes, then puree all the ingredients.

8. Tomato Salad Fresh tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, basil leaves and olive oil are all you need to make this salad. Cherry tomatoes that are yellow or dark green will add an interesting color to the dish. You can vary the presentation of this tomato delicacy on skewers, with one cherry tomato, 1-2 small fresh mozzarella balls (called bocconcini) and 2 basil leaves; then drizzle a few drops of olive oil on each skewer.
9. Sweet and sour chutney Cook green or red tomatoes with onion, brown sugar, ginger and vinegar until mixture is thick and glossy. This is a perfect accompaniment to certain dishes (e.g. bread) and also complements well the garnish and presentation.
10. Simple Herb Tomato Sauce Making your own ketchup is easy, healthy, and less expensive than buying a sauce. Simple ingredients: saute tomatoes, garlic and onions. Add herbs, spices, salt and pepper to taste. In addition to tomatoes bought at the farmers market, you can also try to grow this fruit yourself for regular use, ensuring safety for health.
