Tomato rice made using pressure cooker is a recipe which my daughter loves. She wants different types of dishes in her lunch box everyday. Oh Yes! She knows that her mom is a good cook and hence she demands different dishes. I just love to cook for her as this ensures that she eats healthy home-made food everyday. I pack this one pot tomato rice along with healthy salad in the lunch-box.

Tomato Rice

The tomato rice recipe does not consume much time. I make it in pressure cooker as it saves time during the morning rush hour. Preparing tomato rice in pressure cooker takes only 25-30 minutes. The best part is that it turns delicious. My daughter one day told me to pack two lunch boxes as her friends love to eat from her tiffin 🙂 Proud mommy moment right? Also try this soya granule pulao which my daughter loves like anything.

Tomatoes are rich in vitamin C, vitamin A and iron which are essential for maintaining overall health. Regular consumption of tomatoes reduced LDL cholesterol. Lycopene in tomatoes protects the heart against some cardiovascular diseases. Vitamin A in tomatoes improves eye-sight. There are numerous health benefits of tomatoes. My daughter used to eat raw tomatoes when she was a toddler and just loves them. So try this healthy one pot tomato rice recipe. You can also try this healthy vegetable pulao made in pressure cooker.
