JENNIFER ALEXANDER RUPLE

Summertime adventure awaits! Whether you’re headed to the beach for the day, taking a road trip, or just relaxing on a pontoon boat, you’ll need appropriate provisions, aka lots of snacks. Pack all those goodies up in a Snackle Box – think portable charcuterie or grazing board. A Snackle Box is really just a tackle box, but any food-safe container with compartments will do.

To assemble a Snackle Box, start by lining the compartments with parchment paper. Fill the upper tiers with an assortment of delicious foods such as meats, cheeses, crackers, vegetables, fruits and sweets – plus, what Snackle Box would be complete without bait (gummy worms) and fishing poles (pretzel rods)? Tuck napkins, cups of dip or hummus, and utensils into the bottom compartment. Lastly, garnish the box with fresh herbs. Be sure to store the box in a refrigerator or cooler until it’s time to snack.

Don’t forget the goldfish crackers!

What to include in your Snackle Box:
Pretzel rods
Goldfish crackers
Assorted crackers
Cheese cubes
Sliced pepperoni and salami
Grapes and seasonal fruit
Carrot sticks
Cucumber slices
Pepper slices
Radishes
Hummus or veggie dip
Preserves or hot honey
Olives
Popcorn
Nuts or trail mix
