You will learn more about my dislike of corn tomorrow in the NEW episode of The JCN Clinic Podcast Show when I i discuss this 'distain' with Shannon Stokes Naturopath - do you have a food/ingredient that you just don't get?

22.01.2022 Tonight’s plant based macronutrient balanced meal was deeeelicious! @dameonhubbard rated this better than any restaurant meals from the past weeks escapades in Melbs so I am stoked! What is it? Warm Hummus w Sautéed Kale, Grilled Zucchini & Toasted Walnuts. Yeeeeahhh. Lots of new recipes being made in the kitchen lately for @body_byfinch recipe updates, including this one! I miss having the JCN team to feed all the surplus food! Literally might be doing a call out to local Yarra Valley dwellers for some pick up meals & snacks at this rate! If you live locally and would be keen let me know below. I can’t handle food waste so everything needs eating!!

21.01.2022 As the weather warms up and you are cranking out the smoothies & smoothie bowls regularly for breakfast thanks to all the pretty inspo in IG, make sure you include your macronutrients for a balanced meal and not just realistically a blended fruit salad. Include: Some form of protein - protein powder, collagen, raw egg some form of fat - a dollop of nut butter or seeds or coconut yoghurt or evoo if you are an addict like me.... some form of complex carbs - top with buckinis or your favourite grain based granola or blend into the smoothie, otherwise add oats or quinoa flakes or sweet potato to the smoothie. Just make sure its not just a pretty decoration amount - you want at least 1/3 cup. Other than this go to town! Get creative! Need inspo? Head to the website and search smoothie.

19.01.2022 CHAI Who’s as obsessed as I am (and my family) with a Kick A. Chai? For me it’s got to be super strong, loads of spice, super hot and generous in serving.

18.01.2022 TO OUR JCN CLIENTS We'd love you to take 30sec of your time and leave us a 5 STAR REVIEW on our google page. If you want to leave us a message about your experience at JCN, that would be swell too. Your reviews help others find us looking for guidance.

17.01.2022 Thick slices of my freshly baked loaf of Pumpkin, Millet & Brown Rice Bread from e.a.t cookbook. Enjoyed thoroughly this morning with a mix of sweet n savoury toppings.

16.01.2022 A big part of teaching/educating our clients at @thejcnclinic is about batch cooking and prepping for busy weeks. The reality is that most people are time poor, so keeping on top of nutritious meals and snacks with variety to combat boredom really does lean heavily towards some prep time to set you up. Batch cooking & prep need not take your whole weekend. Its still about your level of enjoyment in the kitchen. However, even if you dont love cooking and want to spend a whol...e Sunday baking (like this baking maniac) then at least setting aside 2 hours to prep some food can truly change your week. Here are some tips to save: On sundays, make a roast dinner but make up a load of extra roast vegetables and ensure your protein is beyond the serving size of one meal. This is the ultimate 2 for 1 deal where you get dinner and left overs for the coming days. Boil up some grains - brown rice, buckwheat, millet - whichever takes your fancy. Store in the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze. Great for grain based macro bowls. Do a shop for basics - wraps to add left over veg and protein to, easy spreads like tahini and nut butters, canned fish for easy protein. Boil some eggs - they last quite a few days in the fridge Make a snack - some balls, some cookies, whatever rocks your socks off. Youll be glad you did 3-4pm Monday evening. Do you have some prep staples that are must dos for you? Id love to hear about them below!

15.01.2022 CLASSIC COMBO! You can't go wrong when you combine beetroot, goats cheese and pecans. Bring it all together with pomegranate molasses for a total taste party. Get the recipe here....

14.01.2022 Have you seen Kehoe’s Kitchen NEW ferment pouches available in Woolworths? They include this delish Turmeric Cauli-Rice & more ready to spice up your meals & support your gut. Find out more about why ferments like Kehoe’s Kitchen Turmeric Cauli-Rice are good for you in my NEW POST now live on the blog! https://jessicacox.com.au//kehoes-kitchen-new-pouches-tur/ .

13.01.2022 SAVE THISMacro bowls can be meaty too meat lovers! Make this one with: Sweet Potato Meat balls Massaged kale in lemon juice & evoo... Cashew cheese Kraut Alfalfa Radish The key to a GREAT Macro Bowl is some sort of delicious sauce, creamy element & dressing to tie it all together. Otherwise it might look pretty but tastes BOOORRRING, and no ones got time for that!

13.01.2022 HOW TO MAKE This is my go-to quick meal these days. My Millet Flat Bread (recipe on the website) with any green out of the garden and turmeric scrambled eggs. To make the eggs I just mix the cracked eggs w 1/2 tsp powdered turmeric and s&p, then I cook the eggs in extra virgin olive oil. I also use the same bowl the flatbread mix goes in for the scrambled eggs to cut down on dishes. So so easy! Extra toppings I might also add are sauerkraut, kimchi, cashew cheese and pesto.

12.01.2022 APRICOT SEED BALLS from the SNACKS chapter of E.A.T. COOKBOOK.

11.01.2022 E.A.T - A NUTRITION RESOURCE & RECIPE BOOK Get your copy here > https://jessicacox.com.au/pr/e-a-t-cookbook-by-jessica-cox/ My true purpose of e.a.t cookbook is to educate you on the why and the how of healthy eating, as all too often we are told what to eat without fundamentally understanding why.... For this reason e.a.t is split into two parts. The book begins with an educational section covering realistic, balanced eating including what healthy eating involves, understanding macronutrients and everyday pantry staples. Following this, e.a.t then shows you how to put this into everyday practice, with a collection of truly mouthwatering whole food recipes.

09.01.2022 One of my FAVOURITE pages from the educational section of my book E.A.T shows you visually how to put together a macronutrient balanced meal. I share so much about all the recipes in E.A.T, yet a HUGE component of this book is educational. I’ve designed E.A.T to break down all the B.S and teach you the foundations of nutrition in a practical and easy way. From what are macronutrients, to what foods are proteins, carbs and fats, to calories & keto - E.A.T helps you break it down and make educated choices to suit you. Get your copy of E.A.T while FREE SHIPPING is still available! https://jessicacox.com.au/pr/e-a-t-cookbook-by-jessica-cox/

09.01.2022 This photo was taken when I first took the huge plunge to open The JCN Clinic. Id been a sole trader Nutritionist for 5-6 years, subletting spaces, but I had a burning desire to expand and grow what I loved to do. So I took every cent Id saved to date, took on a lease in Queen Street Mall, paid for a full fit out and opened The JCN Clinic doors. Fast forward to 2020 and The JCN Clinic has grown into an exceptional team of woman I am super proud of, with a trusted & leading ...name in the industry. Along the way there have been so many lessons and so much to learn about running a successful clinic. To date I am still learning as we grown and expand and know Ill continue to do so. Why am I telling you this? Later this year/early 2021, I plan to bring you a NEW online workshop all about starting, creating & growing your own practitioner clinic. Id like to know from you...what do you want to know? From finances to software, to hiring to creating a business ethos....let me know below if this workshop interests you and what you would like to learn about specifically. Look forward to your thoughts!

You can also make them jumbo size for a breakfast muffin, lovely split in half and spread with avocado. Recipe here....

08.01.2022 Each meal provides a platform for adding in extra pizzzazzz when it comes to nutrition. My favourites will always be fresh/dried herbs & spices! Heres some of the ways I encourage clients to add a little extra to their meals: add turmeric to scrambled eggs add cumin & dried oregano to roast cauliflower add five spice to muffins & banana smoothies... add sumac & sweet paprika to chicken add tarragon to potato salad add fresh rosemary & sage to roasting veg add fresh thyme and/or sage to pork chops add fresh parsley/basil/mint to green salads The possibilities are endless! This week, why not discover a new dried spice/herb and a fresh herb in your kitchen. Youve most likely got some fried options tucked away that youre unsure what to do with. Start there and experiment! Unsure what to do with them? Leave me a comment below and Ill help out.

02.01.2022 PIN THIS RECIPE! Triple Chocolate Vegan Pancake Ingredients: 1/4 cup buckwheat flour... 2 tablespoons dairy free protein powder 1 tablespoon flaxseed meal 1 tablespoon raw cacao 1/4 teaspoon baking powder 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar 1 tablespoon cacao nibs 1 tablespoon chopped dark chocolate ( I used 90%) 1/4 cup + 2 tablespoons rice milk 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2 pear, grated (could also use mashed banana) // to serve // freshly sliced peach, or other seasonal fruit of choice chocolate sauce (see link below) 1 tablespoon cacao nibs 1 tablespoon finely chopped dark chocolate honey (optional) Method: In a medium sized mixing bowl combine all the dry ingredients then stir through the grated pear, cacao nibs and grated chocolate. Make a well in the centre and add in rice milk and olive oil till well combined. You want the batter to be a bit wetter than a cake batter, but not as runny as crepe batter. If you add all of the milk and need more liquid, simply add a little more. Heat a frying pan to a medium heat and add a lug of olive oil or oil of choice. Spoon the batter into the frying pan to create either one large giant pancake, or two pancakes. Allow them to cook until little bubbles form on the top of the pancakes, then flip over to cook through on the otherside. Ensure you give each side ample time on a medium heat, as if the heat is too high the pancake will not cook properly in the centre. While the pancakes are cooking make your chocolate sauce. To serve, top with peach slices, chocolate, cacao nibs, chocolate sauce and honey if desired.

02.01.2022 NEW RECIPE! Gluten Free Potato Bread!! This bread is free from any nuts or seeds and is made with a mix of wholefood gluten free flours and potato.

01.01.2022 I created this recipe in 2012! Since then, this Roast Cauliflower & Quinoa Salad has been a staple for us at home.

Make it and let me know what you think!
