HEALTH & BENEFITS

Beef chuck roast is a good source of protein and iron, and slow-cooking it may increase its nutritional value by breaking down tough fibers and making it more digestible.
The tomato provides vitamin C, potassium, and lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that has been linked to reducing the risk of certain types of cancer.
