Back-to-School Nutrition: Boosting Lunches and Snacks with A2 Protein Milk and Butter

As the school year quickly approaches, it’s time to start thinking about packing nutritious and delicious lunches and snacks for your kids. At Walker Farms, we think A2 protein milk and A2 protein butter are fantastic choices to keep your little ones happy and healthy.

Here’s how these dairy products can enhance their meals

Why A2 Protein Milk?

A2 protein milk is easier on the stomach for some kids because it contains only A2 protein, which can be gentler than regular milk. Here’s how it can make school lunches better:

  • Creamy and Delicious: A2 protein milk is great for a refreshing drink on its own or as a base for smoothies. Try blending it with fresh fruit for a tasty smoothie perfect for adding some fruit to your child’s snacktime.
  • Perfect for Cooking: Use A2 protein milk in recipes like creamy pasta sauces or homemade macaroni and cheese. Not only does it add a rich flavor, but also extra nutrients! 
  • Flavoured Milk: Mix A2 protein milk with a little cocoa powder or some strawberry preserve extract for a fun, flavoured drink that’s still nutritious. Find preserves and more at the Walker Dairy Bar in Aylmer, ON!

A2 protein butter adds delicious flavor and healthy fats to snacks and meals:

  • Spread on Toast: A2 protein butter on whole grain toast or crackers makes for a satisfying and nutritious snack. Add a layer of jam or honey for extra taste.
  • Baking Boost: Use A2 protein butter in baking recipes like muffins, cookies, or bread products. It will add a creamy texture and make those loved snacks a bit healthier!
  • Veggie Dip: Make a tasty dip by mixing A2 protein butter with a little honey and cinnamon. It pairs well with apple slices or carrot sticks.
