Abstract
Stunting is a condition when toddler have less height compared to age, caused by poor nutrition. Probolinggo is one of area which produces moringa leaves, one of good local food ingredients for supplementary food, could be modified with chicken nugget. The research aimed to compare nutrient levels in chicken nugget as supplementary foods which modified with and without moringa leaves. Data were collected by proximate test in August 2020. The results showed nutrient levels of chicken nugget without moringa leaves had 19.2% crude protein, 2.8% crude fat, and 1.7% crude fiber. Meanwhile, nutrient levels of chicken nugget with 50 g moringa leaves (20% of chicken meat) had 18.4% crude protein, 2.8% crude fat, and 3.4% crude fiber. Based on result, it could be concluded that there is no significant difference of nutrition levels (crude protein and crude fat) between two samples, but the chicken nugget with moringa leaves has higher crude fiber than chicken nugget without moringa leaves. Thus, the chicken nugget with moringa leaves could be used as supplementary food for toddler with high crude protein and crude fiber.
