It's that time of year – back to school, back to work, and back to reality. While you may have the lunchbox mains all set, don’t forget the snacks! Whether you’re gearing up for second break, an afternoon hike, or just looking to curb those midday cravings, these ideas using Woolworths' beef biltong will tide you over until you get home. They're perfect for fuelling your day, no matter where it takes you.
The mildly spiced biltong boasts a rich, meaty flavour that’s hard to beat. Woolworths ensures its biltong is made using top-quality cuts by specifying the meat grades and considering the age and fattiness of the animal. This biltong is a fantastic addition to any lunchbox, makes a great topping for a fresh salad, or a perfect protein-packed snack for outdoor adventures. Whether you’re hitting the trail or crunching numbers at your desk, Woolworths' 25 g biltong packs make the ultimate on-the-go snack.
Biltong snack boxes
If you want to spend less at the office cafeteria or corner store, pack a snack box instead! Spread a mixture of cream cheese and biltong powder onto a wrap, roll tightly and slice into pinwheels. Add to a bento box with 25 g Woolworths' sliced beef biltong, Woolworths' biltong pasta salad, sliced watermelon and grapes, hummus with carrots and cucumbers, and a flask of coffee. Or head to the office kitchen to brew yourself a strong cup to make it to the end of the day.
If the kids are off to aftercare or have extra-mural activities after school, skip the usual snacks and try something new! Pack mini chicken pies and sundried tomato pastries to dip into a home-made biltong dip made by mixing biltong powder with cream cheese for a tasty, satisfying treat.
For your next hiking trip, pack a snack box that will keep you energised on the trail! Spread cream cheese mixed with biltong powder onto a wrap, roll it up and slice it into pinwheels. Add Woolworths' double-cream strained black cherry yoghurt, a handful of almonds, a Woolworths vitamin C shot, fruit rolls and some fresh berries for a well-rounded and delicious trail snack.
Biltong-stuffed potato croquettes
Biltong croquettes are a deliciously savoury snack or light lunch option that are easy to whip up and sure to satisfy. These crispy bites are made by stuffing mashed potato croquettes with biltong and cheese and frying them to golden perfection. They're perfect on their own as a quick bite, or you can bulk them up with a fresh side salad for a more filling meal. They’re the ideal balance of comfort food and protein-packed goodness – whether you’re looking for a snack or something a bit more substantial.
