Whether fresh, sundried, or crushed in a sauce, tomatoes are great for you. They can cut the risk of heart disease by up to 30% and decrease LDL cholesterol by as much as 10%, according to the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. Just eat about a half a cup of tomatoes each day.

When fresh tomatoes are scarce in the winter, you can always use tomato paste. It adds the concentrated flavor and the nutrients you're looking for.
