Ingredients
  

Cracker Base
  • 24 pieces whole wheat crackers crispy
  • 6 slices cheddar cheese cut into squares
Optional Additions
  • 1 2 cup grapes fresh
  • 1 4 cup turkey slices optional protein
  • 2 tablespoons hummus optional spread
  • 1 2 teaspoon everything bagel seasoning optional flavor

Equipment

  • Cutting Board
  • Knife
  • Serving Tray
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Freezer
  • Storage Containers

Method
 

  1. Arrange whole wheat crackers evenly on a serving tray for easier assembly.
  2. Slice cheddar cheese into cracker-sized squares for balanced crunchy and creamy bites.
  3. Top crackers with cheese slices, pressing gently so toppings stay in place.
  4. Add grapes, turkey slices, or hummus alongside the crackers for extra variety and texture.
  5. Sprinkle seasoning lightly over assembled crackers and serve immediately for maximum crispness.

Notes

Serve immediately for crispy crackers and creamy cheese texture. Avoid assembling too early because crackers soften over time. Freeze cheese separately if preparing ahead for lunchboxes. Handle assembled crackers gently to prevent breaking. Customize flavors with pepper jack, cucumbers, olives, or smoked turkey. Store ingredients separately in airtight containers for three days.
