1 piece (medium) of Roasted tomato (75 g) has 19 calories. That works out to 25 calories per 100 g. It contains 3.8 g of carbs, 0.8 g of protein, 0.2 g of fat and 1.1 g of fiber. Its 9.8 mg of Vitamin C covers 11% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 35 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Roasted tomato is a tomato cooked until its flesh softens and the edges take on a little colour. It may be roasted whole or halved, and its juices become sweeter and more concentrated as it cooks. Around the Mediterranean, it often appears alongside grilled foods, folded into sauces, or served simply with bread and herbs. It also makes an easy addition to breakfast or a light lunch, especially with eggs, beans or cheese.
Roasted tomato is low in calories and provides some fibre, along with the tomato pigment lycopene. For a lighter serving, use just a drizzle of oil; herbs, garlic and a slice of crusty bread make a simple accompaniment.

How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.

To make roasted tomatoes, halve them and arrange them cut-side up on a baking sheet. Add olive oil, salt, and pepper, then roast at 400°F (200°C) until soft and browned at the edges.
Meaty, ripe tomatoes work especially well for roasted tomatoes because they keep their shape and develop a concentrated flavor. Cherry tomatoes also roast nicely, but cook faster and are better left whole.
Roasted tomatoes usually take about 25–35 minutes at 400°F (200°C), depending on their size and the oven. They are ready when the flesh is tender and the edges have begun to brown.
No, you do not need to peel tomatoes before roasting them. The skins soften in the oven and help the halves hold their shape; peel them afterward only if you want a smoother sauce.
Yes, tomatoes can be roasted in an air fryer. Arrange halved tomatoes in a single layer, add a little oil and seasoning, and cook until softened and browned, checking early because smaller tomatoes cook quickly.
Roasted tomatoes can turn watery when they are crowded on the pan or naturally have a high water content. Space them out and roast cut-side up; if liquid collects, pour it off or keep roasting until it reduces.
Olive oil, salt, black pepper, garlic, and thyme are classic seasonings for roasted tomatoes. Basil or balsamic vinegar can be added after roasting, since fresh herbs and vinegar can lose their brightness in the oven.
Store cooled roasted tomatoes in a covered container in the refrigerator and use them within 3–4 days. Reheat only the portion you plan to eat, or add the cold tomatoes straight to salads and sandwiches.
Yes, roasted tomatoes freeze well for later use in sauces, soups, and stews. Cool them first, freeze in portions in an airtight container, and expect the texture to be softer after thawing.
Roasted tomatoes make an easy base for pasta sauce, soup, and shakshuka, or a flavorful topping for toast and sandwiches. Their concentrated taste also pairs well with beans, grains, and roasted vegetables.
