Hamantaschen are a Purim cookie, but the three-cornered shape works as well with cheese in the middle as with jam. This box runs the idea the whole way through: a savory grilled cheese version as the main, cucumbers cut into triangles beside it, and a chocolate hamantasch for dessert.
Three corners, three times.
Pack the two hamantaschen in separate compartments. The chocolate one sheds filling as it travels, and the grilled cheese one is the part that has to survive until lunch.
