Fresh, delicious, and unique. These are the 3 words I’d use to describe this mug cake. Tomato is a fantastic thing that can bring mositure, taste, and a unique sense of flavor to a dish.

Of course you don’t have to serve this with a slice of tomato, but it does really seal the deal when you’re finished. A nice crisp small piece of tomato to get that “I need something fresh” out of your mind. This mug cake is extremely filling, so if the calories are too much for you, feel free to split it in half! Heck, it would even make a great side dish for some chili at dinner time.
