HEALTH & BENEFITS

While this appetizer may not be the healthiest, it can be enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
Tomatoes are the main ingredient in ketchup, which are rich in lycopene – an antioxidant linked to reducing the risk of cancer and heart disease. Additionally, onions are high in vitamin C and prebiotic fiber, which support immune and digestive health.
