Katie Couric also really likes this one. Swoon. The recipe is all about cozy, cheesy goodness with a powerful dose of vital veggie nutrients. It\u2019s one of my signature dishes because it strikes that perfect balance between comfort, nutrition, balance, and fun.

Lycopene helps protect cells from damage caused by harmful molecules called free radicals, and it\u2019s linked to various health benefits, including reducing the risk of certain cancers and supporting heart health. The canning process also breaks down the cell walls of the tomato, making lycopene more bioavailable and easier to absorb.<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"wprm-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<div
