    The Tomato Fruit Ensalada

    Yes, tomato is a fruit. :P One of my favorite way to eat tomatoes is the ensalada. Simply slice some tomatoes and put it on a bowl. Then, slice some salted eggs and mixed it with the sliced tomatoes. The combination of tomato and salted egg tastes good and it is very easy to prepare or do.
