Four yummy, baon-ready snacks to make with Nova Greens

Tweet

Making your kids' baon can be a challenge. You want to give them an enjoyable, yummy school recess snack while making sure they're getting something that’s filling and nourishing. While it may sound like a daunting task, you can do both.

Here are some yummy and “veggie-packed" snack ideas to help you level up your kids’ baon. The secret ingredient? None other than Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens. This crunchy and flavorful treat is made with malunggay (or moringa), a leafy green vegetable that is rich in vitamins. It’s also made with Nova’s signature four multi-grains—corn, wheat, oats, and rice—which are known to be good sources of energy.

Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens comes in two fun, tasty, and kid-approved flavors: Nacho Cheese and Sweet Corn. You can choose one of these (or both) when you prepare these yummy baon ideas:

1. Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens Veggie Chip ‘n Dip

Here’s a colorful and easy-to-eat baon for your kid. In a baon container, mix Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens Sweet Corn with your choice of chopped veggies such as carrots, cucumbers, and cherry tomatoes. Then, add a mayo dip or whip up some homemade corn and black bean salsa. You can toss this in with the snack-and-veggie mix or put it in a separate container as a fun dip.

2. Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens Tuna or Chicken Salad

Salad as baon? Make it interesting with Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens. In a baon container, mix chopped fruit (apples or grapes are great options), chopped salad veggies (lettuce, tomato, and cucumber), your kids’ choice of protein (cooked tuna or chicken), and a sweet-sour dressing (maybe mango vinaigrette or ranch). Then, top it off with semi-crumbled Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens Nacho Cheese to add a satisfying crunch and a cheesy twist.

3. Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens Crunchy BLT

Upgrade the classic bacon-lettuce-tomato sandwich with Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens. Layer crispy bacon, lettuce, and sliced tomato on a whole-wheat bread slice. Then, spread a dollop of mayo, sprinkle some semi-crumbled Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens Sweet Corn for extra sweetness and crunch, and place the second slice of whole-wheat bread on top. You can slice it in half diagonally to make it easier for your kids to enjoy this tasty sandwich.

4. Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens Mini Pizza

Pizza is an all-time favorite for many kids. Turn Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens into a fun pizza snack. Spread some pizza sauce on a bed of Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens Nacho Cheese. Top it with quick-melting grated cheese and your kid’s favorite pizza toppings, like bell pepper, cooked mushrooms, onion, olives, and tomatoes. You can also make it hearty by adding cooked ground beef or fried chopped ham. Then, pop it in the toaster oven for a few minutes.

These are just a few ideas to get you started. With Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens on hand, the possibilities for fun, delicious, and veggie-packed baon that kids will devour are endless. And in case you’re wondering, Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens is delicious on its own. You can definitely add it as it is to your kids’ lunch boxes.

Ready to make baon that’s yummy and good? Make sure to have your stash of Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens in your pantry. It comes in two, affordable pack sizes to suit your needs: the solo pack for SRP P17.90, while the buddy pack is SRP P37.90.

Enjoy yummy greens with Jack ‘n Jill Nova Greens. Grab this snack from your favorite grocery store or supermarket or add to cart on Lazada. For more fun snack ideas and updates, follow Nova on Facebook.
