DIY Deli Meat and Cheese Lunchables

Peel 3 medium sweet carrots and slice them into thin, kid-friendly sticks.

Wash 1 English cucumber and slice it into 1/4-inch thick rounds. For younger children, cut these rounds into quarters to ensure safe, bite-sized pieces.

Wash 2.5 cups of fresh red seedless grapes and pull them off their stems. For toddlers, slice the grapes lengthwise to eliminate any choking hazards.

Cut 10 oz of block mild cheddar cheese into 1/2-inch cubes or small squares that easily stack on top of the crackers.

Lay out 15 oz of deli-sliced turkey breast. Roll each slice up tightly, then cut the rolls in half to make fun, bite-sized meat pinwheels.

Assemble 5 individual bento-style lunch boxes. Wrap 8 whole grain crackers for each serving in a small piece of parchment paper or place them in a silicone baking cup to keep them dry.

In the remaining compartments of each box, divide the 10 oz of cubed cheese, 15 oz of rolled turkey pinwheels, carrot sticks, cucumber slices, and grapes evenly.

Seal the lunch containers tightly and store them in the refrigerator, or pack them directly into insulated lunch bags with ice packs to keep them cold and fresh until lunchtime.
