If you asked me to list off 5 foods that ideally everyone would eat every day tomatoes would be on that list! They are packed with incredible nutrition such as vitamin C which supports our immune system and increases iron absorption as well as lycopene, an antioxidant that helps reduce the risk of cancer. You can imagine my excitement when I learned that August is TOMATO month at Veggie Buds Club! I hope this month your little ones enjoy trying tomatoes in all sorts of ways including the fun and easy bruschetta recipes below! All three recipes only have 3 ingredients so getting your children involved will be super easy! Peach BruschettaMix together 1 diced peach, 8-10 diced cherry tomatoes, and 1-2 tablespoons of hemp hearts. Add to your favorite whole grain crusty bread and serve!  Feta BruschettaMix together 1 cup of Tomberries, 10 pieces of thinly cut baby spinach, and 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese. Add to your favorite whole grain crusty bread and serve!  Cucumber BruschettaGrate one large tomato and spread onto your favorite whole grain crusty bread. Add a slice of cucumber and a sprinkle of shredded or grated Parmesan cheese and serve!
