One of the fruits that occurs throughout the year is the tomato. Yes, the tomato is a fruit. And we can make thousands of meals with it. From salads, sauces and stews. It is rich in potassium, in fact a cup of sun-dried tomatoes has 39% of the recommended daily intake of potassium. It is essential for muscle contraction and the transmission of nerve impulses.
