Ingredients
Pre-cooked chicken or turkey breast (sliced): 120 g / 4.2 oz / ~1 cup loosely packed
Hummus: 45 g / 1.6 oz / 3 Tbsp
Mini pita/naan dippers (or small pita pieces): 35 g / 1.2 oz / ~3 mini rounds
Baby carrots: 80 g / 2.8 oz / ~⅔ cup
Mini cucumber or chunks: 80 g / 2.8 oz / ~1 cup sliced
Mini bell peppers (halved): 75 g / 2.6 oz / ~3 small peppers
Light spreadable cheese (wedge): 20–21 g / 0.7–0.75 oz / 1 wedge
Everything bagel seasoning: ½ tsp
Optional: lemon wedge, Dijon or honey mustard (not in macros)
Directions
Prep the pepper bites: Halve mini bell peppers and remove seeds. Spread cheese wedge across the halves and sprinkle with everything bagel seasoning.
Assemble the box: Add sliced chicken, hummus (in a cup/liner), pita, carrots, cucumber, and the stuffed pepper halves.
Finish: Add a lemon wedge or a small cup of mustard if you like a tangy dip.
Meal Prep Instructions
Batch 3–4 boxes: Multiply ingredients and portion into airtight containers. Use silicone or paper liners for hummus.
Keep pita pleasant: Store pitas separately at room temp if possible. If refrigerated, warm 10–15 sec in the microwave (cover with a damp paper towel) to soften.
Storage: Refrigerate boxes up to 4 days. Add lemon/mustard just before eating.
Protein swap options (similar macros): Rotisserie chicken breast, turkey slices, or grilled chicken — keep to ~120 g cooked.
Coach’s Tip
Season the sliced chicken lightly with a pinch of salt and a squeeze of lemon right before packing — brightens flavor without extra calories.
🌱 Vegetarian Option — High-Protein Mediterranean Snack Box
Replace chicken/turkey with 100 g (3.5 oz) boiled eggs (≈2 eggs) and 60 g (2.1 oz / ¼ cup) edamame (shelled). Keep hummus, pita, veggies, and cheese wedge the same. Sprinkle eggs with a pinch of salt and everything bagel seasoning for flavor.
