WHY IT'S KETO-FRIENDLY

  • Low net carbs: ~2.7–3g per 100g fits most keto macros
  • Portion-friendly: Countable pieces (≈10g each) make tracking easy
  • High water content (~94%) adds volume and hydration
  • Natural sweetness without a big carb load
  • Nutrient-dense: vitamins, potassium, and antioxidants per minimal carbs
  • Ready-to-eat convenience—great for salads, snacks, and sides

PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS

HALVED IN SALADS

Cut in half and toss into green salads for a burst of sweetness and acidity—often reduces the need for extra dressing.

ROASTED WITH HERBS

Toss with Olive Oil, garlic, and basil or thyme; roast at 400°F (205°C) for 15–20 minutes until blistered.

SAUTÉED SIDE DISH

Sauté in butter or Olive Oil with garlic until just bursting; finish with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs.

FRESH SNACK

Enjoy whole—count 5–10 tomatoes for a satisfying, low-carb snack.

KEBAB ADDITION

Skewer between proteins and veggies; grilling concentrates flavor and adds juiciness.
