We know how it goes: you find a healthy food your child loves, and then… they get bored. As a busy mom, you want to keep nutrition high without spending three hours on great-looking meals. If you have a jar of Moppet NutriBlend in your pantry, you aren’t just holding a spread; you’re holding a versatile superfood that can transform any boring snack into a nutritional powerhouse.
Our NutriBlend, which is a delicious mix of peanuts, bananas, pawpaw, and dates, is already a fan favourite amongst mothers and children, but here are five ways to use it that your kids (and you!) will absolutely love.
- The “Super-Smoothie” Boost: Mornings are a whirlwind. If your toddler is a “liquid breakfast” fan, add a tablespoon of NutriBlend to their fruit smoothie. The healthy fats from the peanuts and avocado oil help them stay full until lunch, while the natural sweetness of dates means you can skip the added sugar.
- 3-Ingredient Energy Bites: Mix a half-cup of Moppet NutriBlend with a cup of rolled oats and a drizzle of honey (for kids over one year). Roll them into small balls and keep them in the fridge. These are perfect for school lunchboxes or as a quick “mom-snack” when you’re running errands.
- The Nutri-Dip Platter: Picky eaters often respond better to “interactive” eating. Slice up some apples, cucumbers, or carrots and put a dollop of NutriBlend in the middle. The creamy texture makes it a fun dip that sneaks in protein and fiber while they enjoy their veggies.
- Swirled Breakfast Oats: Top a warm bowl of Moppet Mixgrain or Nutmeal with a swirl of NutriBlend. The heat from the porridge melts the blend, creating a rich, nutty flavor that makes breakfast feel like a treat.
- Healthy “Frozen Yogurt” Bark: Spread a thin layer of Greek yogurt on a tray, swirl in some NutriBlend, and top with berries. Freeze for two hours, then break it into pieces. It’s a cooling, healthy alternative to ice cream that provides actual nourishment.
By keeping a jar of NutriBlend handy, you’re always just seconds away from a snack that supports your child’s energy and brain health.
