This is my first time buying Roma tomatoes. They look very fresh. I usually cut them open, sprinkle them with a little salt and Italian herbs, drizzle them with a little olive oil, and bake them in a small oven for about 15 minutes at around 180 degrees Celsius. Heating them makes it easier for the body to absorb lycopene!
