Knowing it's about to be a holiday and a 3-day work week, I wanted to be sure to use out some remaining items in our fridge. I didn't want to go into the weekend with a lot of leftovers, so this week features a lot of duplicate ideas.
Cucumber salad with shredded carrots and a splash of Italian dressing (1/2 cup, 40 calories)
Blueberries (1/2 cup, 41 cal.)
Cheddar cheese chunks (1.5 oz., 150 cal.)
------------------
Total calories for the box are approximately 431 cal.
For costs, I feel like the salad was around $0.75 as I made a larger container of it and this was just a small portion. The cheddar was from the deli, so that was more than likely at least $1. As much as we are enjoying our fancy cheeses, I did pick up some regular blocks at $1.79 which will start bringing the price down. The blueberries I've estimated at about $0.50 and the cucumber at about $0.25. Total box cost would be about $2.50.
This box is an EasyLunchboxes Snack Box yet again, $12 for a 4 pack on Amazon. I still mostly use these because of the convenience aspect.
