When the tomatoes are popping throughout the spring and summer this is a great recipe to use them up and it is so delicious too! Tomatoes are an excellent source of lycopene, which is absorbed best by the body when it is cooked or pureed. Lycopene is an antioxidant so helps protect and repair the body against damage. Pair this with some quinoa or other ancient grain to boost the protein and fiber content.
