Canned tomatoes provide vitamins, minerals, and fiber. They also contain a phytonutrient called lycopene, an antioxidant that is anti-inflammatory and helps prevent cardiovascular disease. Also, by adding a little fat when you cook with canned tomatoes, the lycopene absorption increases. Here, I prepare a stew of beans with chicken sausage, where I use canned diced tomatoes and tomato paste.
