👩🍳 Instructions
-
1
Prepare Proteins: If not already cooked, cook chicken breast (bake or pan-fry) and shred or dice. Hard-boil eggs if not already prepared. Allow both to cool completely.
-
2
Prep Fruits & Veggies: Wash and slice cucumber, bell peppers, and carrots. Wash berries. Slice apple; if prepping ahead, toss with a squeeze of lemon juice to prevent browning.
-
3
Assemble Each Box: Divide the cooked chicken (approx. 3 oz per box) or 1 hard-boiled egg + 1/4 cup Greek yogurt/cottage cheese into the main compartment of four separate reusable snack boxes.
-

Add Sides: In separate compartments, add 1/2 cup mixed berries, 1/2 cup mixed sliced vegetables (cucumber, bell pepper, carrots), 1/4 cup mixed nuts and seeds (2 tbsp almonds, 1 tbsp pumpkin seeds), 1 tbsp hummus, 2 whole-grain crackers, and 1/4 of the sliced apple to each box.

Store: Securely close each snack box and refrigerate immediately. They are best enjoyed within 3-4 days.
💡 Notes
Feel free to swap out proteins (turkey slices, edamame), fruits (grapes, orange segments), or veggies (snap peas, cherry tomatoes) based on preference and availability. Ensure all components are cool before assembling to maintain freshness. For extra flavor, sprinkle a little 'everything bagel' seasoning on the hard-boiled eggs!
