Time to try.... a Tomato!

This month, your nutrition educator will be delivering fresh cherry tomatoes for students to sample. This veggie is a familiar plate staple that can be included in breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks!

BUT.... I always hear that its a fruit?! Or is it a vegetable?!?!

Since the tomato grows out of a flower, botanically it is a fruit. However according to its nutritional profile we define it as a vegetable!

Tomatoes can be made a variety of ways and are simple to prepare! Our team takes out the guess work for you with our recipe of the month. Check out one of our quick videos on how to prepare this delicious veggie.
