Instructions
- Begin by gathering all the ingredients for your Grown Up Lunchable Box: cheese slices, crackers, sliced turkey, grapes, carrot sticks, hummus, and dark chocolate squares.
- Take a small container or a lunchbox to assemble your lunchable. Choose a container that has multiple compartments or sections if possible.
- Start with the base of your lunchable by placing a few cheese slices in one compartment. You can use a mix of different cheeses for added flavor.
- Next, add a handful of crackers next to the cheese. Choose your favorite variety, whether it's whole grain, flavored, or classic saltines.
- In another compartment, layer the sliced turkey. You can fold or roll the slices for a more appealing presentation.
- Wash and dry a handful of grapes, then place them in a separate section of the container. These will provide a sweet contrast to the savory items.
- Prepare the carrot sticks by cutting them into manageable lengths if they aren’t pre-cut. Arrange them neatly in another compartment.
- For dipping, add a small portion of hummus in a small container or directly in the lunchbox if it fits. This will pair perfectly with the carrot sticks.
- Finally, include a couple of dark chocolate squares in a small section of the box for a sweet treat to finish your meal.
- Close the lunchbox securely and your Grown Up Lunchable Box is ready to enjoy! This meal is perfect for lunch at work, school, or a picnic.
