Here’s what goes into snack boxes
- Zucchini Cheddar Bites: Packed with hidden veggies and perfect for satisfying that savory tooth. Grab the cheddar bites recipe here!
- Fruit: Strawberries, oranges/mandarines, and seedless red grapes are my favorites, but you can substitute them with what you enjoy.
- Veggies: Celery sticks last for a very long time in the fridge, making them an ideal candidate for meal prep. I also love it with fresh edamame, carrots, or sliced bell pepper.
Here’s how to make the boxes
- Make the Zucchini Bites: Prepare these according to the directions. It’s just a mix-and-bake recipe that takes 15 minutes of hands-on work and 30 minutes to bake.
- Assemble: While the bites are baking, you can add everything else to the boxes. Then, pop the zucchini bites into the containers when they’ve cooled.

- Mediterranean Box: Pair cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, pita bread, and olives with feta and hummus. For a larger meal prep box, try this Mediterranean meal prep lunch box.
- Sweet and Savory: For this one, I’ll use raspberries paired with chocolate chips and nuts or crackers. Add some cheese and apple slices, and it’s a match made in heaven.
- Breakfast On the Go: For this one, pack carrot lox, hard-boiled eggs, Greek yogurt tzatziki sauce or cream cheese, and a mini bagel.
- Peanut Butter Protein Pack: I wasn’t sure what to call this one, but it’s one of my favorite healthy snacks, so it needed to be included. A half banana (with the peel still on to prevent browning), peanut butter, pretzel thins, and a bit of yogurt or cottage cheese.
