1 carrot
1 cherry tomato
You pick the carrot, and then you wash it. Then you stick the cherry tomato on the pointy part of the carrot and you lick it.
It takes a long time to eat.

kale
olive oil
sea salt or brewer’s yeast
Break off pieces of kale (better to use the leafier parts rather than the thick stems). Spread out pieces on a cookie sheet and spray with some olive oil and sprinkle salt or brewer’s yeast or whatever’s to your liking. Bake at about 375-400 for 15 min. or so (til crispy).
