Cucumber Ham Cheese Kabobs Lunchbox Idea
My quest to shake up the ol’ lunchtime routine continues. For today’s selection, I’ve come up with a kabob version of the classic ham and cheese sandwich, with a veggie-licious twist: cucumber slices!
Cool, mild cucumber makes the perfect foil for salty ham and cheese. But if you put them all together on bread, it would probably get soggy by lunchtime.
Fortunately, there’s a simple solution: skip the bread, and skewer slices of ham, cheese, and cucumber together. In place of your soggy sandwich, you can nibble on light, crunchy, refreshing mini-kabobs.
Round out the lunch with some apple slices, pretzels, and trail mix, and you’ve got a good balance of carbs, protein, and fat to keep you going through the afternoon. TIP: To keep apples from browning, soak them in a water/lemon juice mixture or a water/sprite mixture.
