  2. Fill another compartment with cheese cubes.
  3. Add the cherry tomatoes to a separate section.
  4. Place the pretzels in a different compartment to keep them crunchy.

Notes

Set up an assembly line on Sunday night: line up 5 lunch boxes, fill them all at once, and refrigerate. Mornings become grab-and-go instead of a scramble.
