Are tomatoes good for you?
Yes!! These one-bite tomatoes are not only delicious, but they also offer numerous health benefits. Tomatoes are a great source of antioxidants and vitamin C, which help to boost the immune system and promote healthy skin. They also contain lycopene, which has antioxidants and helps promote good cholesterol levels in the blood.
The other ingredients in this recipe are a great healthy food source as well! Cauliflower rice is low in carbs and high in fiber, which can help you feel fuller for longer. Garlic has anti-inflammatory properties that can help lower cholesterol levels, and basil is an excellent source of antioxidants and has antibacterial properties. Also included in this recipe is nutritional yeast. The great thing about nutritional yeast is that it adds a nice “cheesy” flavor, and it’s a complete protein, giving this dish an extra health burst!
What flavors go best with tomatoes?
Basil and garlic pair amazingly well with tomatoes! The good news is, this 10-minute tomato appetizer has both! What’s especially appealing about this recipe is how easy it is to prepare. The one-bite portions make it a perfect appetizer for entertaining, or it can be served as a side dish with your favorite meal. For an added burst of flavor, they are garnished with some fresh basil, YUM!
