when Ashley resident, Natalie Rowles, is not busy in her garden or taking photos of insects, she is inventing tasty recipes.
THIS week, nature lover, environmentalist and Ashley resident, Natalie Rowles shares her cow-pea pancake recipe.
“I am now growing these pest-free, nearly drought-free crops all over the place and suggest others to do the same,” she said.
“The cow-pea ground seeds are turned into flour by using my little coffee grinder. This is my own recipe to make cow-pea pancakes which are absolutely delicious and healthy and don’t give stomach problems.

“Please note, the ground cow-peas give a paste-like effect in the coffee grinder so clean it straight away after removing the cow-pea flour. (makes it so much easier).
“I have thought of experimenting using cow-peas and turning it to cow-pea (peanut-butter) due to the slight oil in the seeds after grinding it up. I will keep you posted.”
