Ingredients

  • 2 cups fresh pineapple chunks — 1/2 cup per box

  • 4 Great Value light mozzarella string cheese sticks — 1 stick per box, cut into bite-size pieces

Great Value light mozzarella is dairy. Confirm every packaged product label when managing a food allergy — snack box brands drift.

You want a no-cook sweet-and-savory snack box for two kids across two days that still carries real protein.

  3. 3.ADD THE MOZZARELLA. Cut 1 Great Value light mozzarella string cheese into bite-size pieces for each box. ~50 cal / 6g protein per stick — the second protein tier.
  4. 4.ADD THE COCOROLLS. Finish each box with half a serving of Sun Tropics Salted Caramel CocoRolls. Pack whole for maximum crunch. CocoRolls contain egg and coconut — recheck the label if managing an allergy.
  5. 5.SEAL + CHILL. Snap lids on and refrigerate. Serve within 2 days. Transport with an ice pack. For maximum crunch, pack the CocoRolls separately and add them at serving time.

Estimated nutrition

~230 cal | ~17g protein.

~230 cal / 17g protein per snack box, approximate. Component breakdown: 1/2 cup fresh pineapple (~41 cal / 0.5g protein) + 2 oz Hempler's Black Forest uncured ham (~73 cal / 10g protein) + 1 Great Value light mozzarella string cheese (~50 cal / 6g protein) + 1/2 serving Sun Tropics Salted Caramel CocoRolls (~65 cal / 0.5g protein) ≈ 229 cal / 17g protein. Marked estimated — pineapple is filled by eye rather than weighed, and packaged values shift by brand. Confirm exact numbers off the current labels of the brands you pick.

Brands I use

Hempler's
Black Forest Uncured Ham (~37 cal / 5g protein per oz — 2 oz per box)
The mild, kid-friendly protein anchor. 2 oz per box lands at ~10g protein from the ham alone. Uncured, no added nitrates. Verify the current label.
Great Value
Light Mozzarella String Cheese (~50 cal / 6g protein per stick — 1 stick per box)
The second protein tier and the creamy element. Light mozzarella keeps calories down while adding 6g protein per box. Cut into bite-size pieces for younger eaters.
Sun Tropics
Salted Caramel CocoRolls (rolled coconut wafers, ~130 cal / 1g protein per 1 oz serving — 1/2 serving per box)
The sweet crunch that makes it read as a treat box. Rice-flour wafers, gluten-free. Contains EGG and COCONUT — recheck the label if managing an allergy. Pack whole for crunch.
Fresh Pineapple
Any grocery-store fresh pineapple, cut into chunks (~41 cal / 0.5g protein per 1/2 cup)
The bright fresh element and the natural sweetness. Estimated from the filled compartment, not weighed. Cut age-appropriate.
Buluker Snack Containers
Four-compartment pastel snack boxes (the exact set shown across the Snack Box Series).
Same 4-compartment containers used across every Snack Box Series entry. Pineapple, ham, mozzarella, and CocoRolls each get their own compartment. See Favorites → Snack Box Essentials.
