Onions and tomatoes are staple ingredients found in many cuisines worldwide, from Mediterranean and South Asian to Latin American dishes. Onions are low in calories but rich in antioxidants and compounds like quercetin, which may help reduce inflammation and support heart health. They also provide a source of vitamin C, fiber, and key minerals like potassium. Tomatoes, prized for their vibrant color and tangy-sweet flavor, are packed with lycopene, a powerful antioxidant linked to reduced risks of certain cancers and heart disease. They’re also a rich source of vitamins A, C, K, and potassium. Both ingredients are naturally fat-free and versatile, enhancing the flavor and nutritional value of meals. However, consuming tomatoes in excess may affect individuals sensitive to acidity, and frying onions can increase calorie and fat content. Together, onions and tomatoes contribute to a balanced diet and add depth to countless savory recipes.
