Tomatoes are classified as fruits, something you may not have known. They are now often classified as a vegetable. Tomatoes are ubiquitous and used in many meals and dishes. The antioxidant lycopene, found in abundance in this superfood, has been linked to several health advantages, including a lower risk of developing cancer and cardiovascular disease. It’s a great source of vitamin C and K as well as folate, potassium, and other minerals. Here are a few crock pot recipes that include tomatoes, which are both sour and sweet.
