Tomatoes aren't good for dogs-they can make them sick. I'm sure what she has eaten so far will be fine, but I would err on the side of caution and not feed her any more!

Tomatoes and tomato plants. These contain atropine, which can cause dilated pupils, tremors, and heart arrhythmias. The highest concentration of atropine is found in the leaves and stems of tomato plants, followed by unripe (green) tomatoes, followed by ripe tomatoes. So if you have the good fortune to have a tomato plant or two on your stoop, be sure your dog doesn’t nibble on it, and it’s safest not to feed him tomatoes either.

What about celery?
My two love bell peppers-green, red, and yellow, as well as celery-I just make sure it's chopped well so they don't get the strings in their poo Snap peas are also a favorite around our house, as is zucchini-I just grate it up raw.
