About TOMATO PASTE
A highly concentrated tomato product, this paste is made solely from tomatoes. It presents a significant source of calories, protein, carbohydrates, and fat, notably higher in concentration than fresh tomatoes due to water removal. This paste can be a valuable addition to a balanced diet when used in moderation as an ingredient in sauces, soups, and stews. Due to its concentrated nature and high caloric content, mindful portion control is essential to ensure it complements, rather than overwhelms, overall dietary goals. Consider balancing it with other vegetables and lean protein sources within a meal.
