Tomato stacks are both flavorful and low in calories. Enjoy them as a snack on the 10-Day Belly Slimdown, or make a complete meal with the extra rotisserie chicken from the bone broth on the plan.
Recipe from The 10-Day Belly Slimdown by Dr. Kellyann Petrucci
Ingredients
- 1 large ripe beefsteak tomato, or 2 medium tomatoes, at room temperature
- Celtic or pink Himalayan salt

- 8-10 fresh basil leaves, julienne
- 1 tbsp good-quality olive oil
- 1 tsp balsamic vinegar, or more to taste
- crushed red pepper (optional)
