A pot, some dirt, and a tomato full of seeds to plant.

Like the man says:

Only two things money can't buy
That's true love and homegrown tomatoes

After that? Any herbs you like. Basil, parsley, oregano, etc. are all better when you can just pick them right off the plant when you want them.

Can you grow tomatoes in a pot?! Wow, I have to try

Of course you can! There are only two issues: you will need to water a lot more and your harvest will be smaller. But if you have limited space it's better than nothing. I'm more of a chilli guy and I grow all my chillies in my apartment in 1L pots just fine.
