Peanut Butter Jelly Protein Boxes
Post contains affiliate links
Folks, can we get a little love here for the good old peanut butter and jelly sandwich?
I mean, we all loved these kids, right? But somehow, now that we’re grown up, we feel like we’re not supposed to enjoy them anymore. Like they’re not sophisticated enough, or something.
Well, hogwash, I say. The PB&J is a classic for a reason. It’s satisfying in every way, with protein-packed peanut butter to fill up your tummy and sweet jelly to give your taste buds a little extra thrill.

The only problem with it is that sometimes it gets squashed in a lunch box. But that’s easy to fix – just cut it up and put it in an EasyLunchbox, with fresh fruit and veggies. I picked strawberry/blueberry mix, cucumbers, and carrots, but you can use whatever you like best.
And if anyone laughs at you for eating a “kids’ lunch,” just offer them a bite and see if their eyes don’t light up.

While this is a great lunch alternative, it’s not protein packed! Unfortunately peanut butter isn’t a good source of protein. I added so boiled eggs to mine to make it a protein packed lunch!
Love your addition of hard boiled eggs!
