Cheddar adds a savory dairy portion without a cooking step. The four recipes use 38 g and different fruit, cracker and dip combinations.
Keep the protein and calorie estimate attached to the whole recipe; cheese alone does not describe the box.
Cut the stated portion with a clean knife; cheese does not need washing, roasting or steaming.
Keep the cheese refrigerated at 4°C / 40°F or below. Carry the lunch with a reliable cold source and keep crackers dry.
Apple Cheddar Park and Park Bites use apple, crackers, grapes, peanut butter and an 8 g chocolate finish; Cheese Stack and its after-school variation use a 38 g cheddar portion with crackers, fruit, pesto and nuts. Open each card for its actual quantities.
Use a reliable cold source for perishable cheese. Refrigerate promptly; the assembled box is served cold and is not a shelf-stable snack.
