Being Seen

I want to dedicate this blog and my WHOLE site really, to every woman who:

Holds ANY doubt in their ability for greatness

Who may fear being exposed AND/ OR revealing their WHOLE selves to others is difficult

Who is working on dismantling people pleasing behaviour passed on from generations

Who’s self worth is often determined by what others think and how they value her.

Who values others before herself.

Who’s love for learning/education is so great she continually seeks to learn, understand and question rather than trusting her gut, and her sense of knowing before others

My darling this is for you…

This website has been more ‘offline’ then ‘live’ since its been created!

This is due to ALL the above statements and mostly my FEAR of being seen. 

I want to say that I am choosing to now step into my vulnerability and by doing so, believing others will feel it’s safe to do the same. 

The power in women rising together, lifting each other up and celebrating each- others greatness is what I am NOW hungry for. What I am opening up to, what I am calling in.

I see you, I feel you, 

Sending love and courage,

Jodie

Banana Pikelets

Banana Pikelets

I am continually looking for ways to optimise the family’s nutrition within EVERY meal.

I often question ‘how can I upgrade this meal to be as nutrient dense as possible, using the power of nature combinations of course?’

Below is my version of pancakes. Pikelets really, as my girls like them small- but you can create whatever size you like.

What I love about this recipe works well for breakfast AND snacks. So feel free to double the recipe to ensure you have left overs for lunch boxes or afternoon tea 🙂 

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 2  organic eggs
  • 1/4 cup of banana flour
  • pinch of organic vanilla powder and cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup of spinach- or your choice of green
  • Organic butter for cooking and serving
  • Medium fry pan
Banana Pikelet mixture
Banana Pikelet mixture

METHOD

  • Blend all ingredients together
  • Allow butter to melt on medium heat and then pour mixture into hot fry pan- Cook as you would a normal pancake/pikelet adjusting the heat as appropriate
  • Once bubbles appear, flip to see the golden cooked colour.

SERVE

I often serve it on its own with butter but have also served with:

  • Greek yoghurt with a sprinkle of spirulina
  • Coconut yoghurt with chia seeds
  • Fresh berries, stewed berries

ENJOY,

With Love, Jodie

Raspberry BURST:

1/4 cup of frozen raspberries that also live in the centre and burst raspberry goodness in your mouth which each bite

Blend dates, vanilla and coconut oil in blender until smooth

Add remaining ingredients and then continue to process until smooth

Pour mix out and form into a balls

(If using frozen raspberries, roll the ball around 1 raspberry at a time-  for the raspberry goodness burst in your mouth!)
