How to Make Supermodel Snack

Ingredients:

1 large ripe tomato (beefsteak-style is best), unrefrigerated
2–3 slices organic shaved turkey
1 heaping tablespoon cottage cheese
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard (Grey Poupon or don’t bother)
Everything bagel seasoning
Optional: fresh basil or arugula

Directions:

Slice the tomato into thick rounds and place them on a plate.
Layer the shaved turkey on top of the tomato slices (yes, it has to be shaved).
In a small bowl, mix the cottage cheese with the Dijon mustard. Use more cottage cheese than mustard unless you like it strong.
Spoon the mixture over each tomato and turkey stack.
Top with everything bagel seasoning. Add fresh basil or arugula if you want to feel fancy.
Eat immediately, preferably standing up!

Tips to Make Supermodel Snack
