10 - 1/2 tsp smoked paprika (optional, for chicken)
# How to Make It:
01 - Bring a pot of water to boil. Gently add eggs and cook for 10 minutes for hard-boiled eggs. Transfer to cold water, peel, and halve.
02 - While eggs cook, season chicken breasts with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika (if using).
03 - Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook chicken breasts for 5–6 minutes per side, or until cooked through and juices run clear. Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice.
04 - Prepare vegetables: halve cherry tomatoes, slice cucumber, cut carrots into sticks.
05 - Assemble lunch boxes: Divide eggs, chicken slices, nuts, tomatoes, cucumber, carrots, and hummus evenly among four airtight containers.
06 - Seal and refrigerate. Consume within 3–4 days for best freshness.
