Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 tsp everything bagel seasoning
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 medium English cucumber, sliced into rounds
  • 1/2 cup mini carrots, peeled
  • 2 tbsp raw almonds
  • 1 small avocado, cubed
  • 1 oz low-sodium feta cheese cubes
  • 1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 1 pinch sea salt
  • 1 pinch cracked black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Place eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water by one inch. Bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
  2. As soon as the water boils, turn off the heat, cover the pan with a lid, and let sit for 9 minutes for a creamy center or 12 minutes for fully hard-boiled eggs.
  3. Immediately transfer eggs using a slotted spoon into a bowl filled with ice and cold water. Let them chill for at least 5 minutes to stop the cooking process.
  4. Peel the eggs and slice them in half lengthwise. Season with everything bagel seasoning, sea salt, and cracked black pepper.
  5. Toss cubed avocado in fresh lemon juice to prevent browning.
  6. Arrange eggs in the center of two bento boxes. Surround with cucumber slices, halved cherry tomatoes, and mini carrots.
  7. Fill the remaining gaps with avocado, raw almonds, and feta cheese cubes to secure the contents for transport.
