What it is
Spartan Diced Tomatoes are ripe tomatoes that have been cut into small, uniform pieces. They are packed in their own juice, which helps to preserve their fresh flavor and texture. This convenient product offers a ready-to-use ingredient for a variety of dishes, saving time and effort in the kitchen. The diced format ensures even cooking and distribution throughout recipes.
How people cook with it
These diced tomatoes are a versatile pantry staple, perfect for adding tomato flavor and body to many meals.
- Sauces and gravies
- Soups and stews
- Casseroles and bakes
- Salsas and dips
Simply open the can and add the diced tomatoes directly to your cooking. They can be simmered in sauces, added to bubbling stews, or incorporated into baked dishes. The juice they are packed in can also be used to add extra liquid and flavor to your recipes. For a quicker salsa or topping, you can drain some of the juice before adding them to other ingredients.
How it differs from similar foods
Compared to whole peeled tomatoes, diced tomatoes offer a pre-cut convenience. They also tend to hold their shape slightly better than crushed tomatoes, providing more distinct pieces of tomato in the finished dish.

How to keep the rest
After opening, transfer any unused diced tomatoes to a separate airtight container. Refrigerate and use within 3 to 5 days to maintain freshness and prevent spoilage. Proper storage ensures the quality of the remaining tomatoes.
