1 Package of Hummus cups
1 Package of Cream Cheese

Using an apple slicer, Slice each apple.
Using a knife, dice each apple slice into cubes
Evently distribute the apples into each jar
Top off with Cinnamon
Add 2/3 cup of Liquid of choice. I use Water.

Snacks

This week it was cheaper for me to buy the large quart container of Vanilla yogurt instead of the individual cups.

Snack 1

1/4 cup of granola
1/2 cup of Dannon Vanilla Light and Fit Yogurt

Snack 2

2 Hard Boiled Eggs

Lunch- Naan Veggie Sandwich

This sandwich was one of the best I have made. I am happy to report that storing it in the 3 compartment containers kept my food fresh all week. Having my items prepared helped me build my sand which at work.

I did not add any lunch meat to my sandwich, but you can add anything you wish.

First start by preparing your 3 compartment containers. You can order these containers here
Next, Start by washing your peppers, red cabbage, and cucumber
Chop your red cabbage, and place that in 1 portion of each container
On top of the cabbage, evenly distribute the spinach
Next, Slice your cucumbers
Lay them on top of your Spinach and Red Cabbage
In the second portion of your container, add Sliced Tomatoes.
In the 3rd Portion of your containers add Sliced Peppers.

To the 3rd portion you can also add 2 oz of Mozzarella Cheese if you wish.
I sliced my peppers sandwich style.
This makes it easier to lay on the sandwich.
On the side of the containers add:
- Individual Hummus Cups
- 1 Table Spoon of Cream Cheese packed in a to go 2oz container
- 2 Sliced of Naan Wrapped in Saran Wrap.
When you are ready to eat your sandwich, Start by spreading your cream cheese and hummus on both sides of the Naan.
Then, Layer your sandwich with everything in your 3 compartment container.
Drizzle with balsamic glaze.
And your sandwich is built!
