(NAPSA)—Tomat-o, tomaht-o. No matter how you sayit, tomatoes are a great way to add nice flavor to favorite dishes without adding high calories. That’s why Bob Greeneincludes tomatoes in a numberof recipes in his new bestselling book “The Best Life Diet.” “Tomatoes are an easy way to sneak more vegetables into your diet, and because I recognize you can only find fresh tomatoes in the produce section a few months out of the year, I recommend keeping canned tomatoes in the pantry year-round,” said Greene. “Organic tomato products, like Muir Glen Organic, are my favorite because they offer fresh, bold tomato taste.” Greene also recommends red tomatoes for their lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that has been shown to help prevent some cancers and mayplay role in preventing heart disease and otherseriousillnesses.
