Tomato Salad - How Many Calories?

How many calories are in tomato salad?

A 150 g side of tomato and onion salad dressed with olive oil provides about 52 calories. A larger 200 g amount has 69 calories. The source's 275 g serving has 95; it is a reference amount, not a bowl everyone needs to finish.

Tomato, onion and olive oil

The recipe combines four medium tomatoes, one medium onion, a tablespoon of olive oil and a teaspoon of salt. Chop the vegetables and mix with the oil and salt. Their weights are unspecified, so the recipe does not have a verified fixed yield. Weigh your portion with its dressing.

The olive oil is included: the 275 g example contains 5.55 g fat. Dressing left in the bowl cannot be translated into a precise calorie reduction without knowing how much remains. For a version with cucumber, green pepper and parsley, the lemon-and-vinegar shepherd salad gives a different ingredient combination.

Tomato-and-pepper ezme pickle also contains vinegar and olive oil. Its 50 g example has about 34 kcal and 2.77 g fat. Use the actual relish portion when serving it in place of salad rather than treating both tomato dishes as identical.

Alongside the main dish

A 150 g portion supplies 1.48 g protein and 1.63 g fibre. It can be the vegetable side of a lentil meal; the examples of foods to serve with lentils show how a salad fits alongside the main dish.

A salad's name does not reveal its fat content. At the same 150 g weight, this recipe provides 52 calories, while the generic tomato, carrot and radish salad provides about 130. The second entry does not specify its complete dressing, so that difference cannot be attributed to carrots or radishes alone.

Source and calculation notes

The figures use the Diyetkolik tomato-salad table and its named recipe, with 95.15 calories per 275 g. They are recipe estimates. The source prose assigns its 100 g macros to the larger serving; the figures here are scaled by weight. Total sugars and saturated fat are unreported.
