Paste
Whether you cook from scratch very often or not, tomato paste is a convenient staple you’ll want to keep in the pantry. It has similar nutritional value to fresh tomatoes, since it’s simply the essence of tomatoes in concentrated form. Just a tablespoon of tomato paste is a good source of antioxidants and has 3 to 6 percent of your recommended daily value of iron, potassium and B vitamins.
