Thank you for hosting this awesome link-up. Today I shared Baked Pasta Florentine with homemade whole wheat noodles, and White Borscht. The link-up party is just gettng started, so I’ll be back to “shop” for recipes later on…

I’m sharing a post on my clean food journey. Thanks for hosting. http://learningandyearning.wordpress.com/2012/05/12/my-clean-food-journey/
Thanks for hosting! My post this week is about the Champion’s Steak, a thick cut of beef cut from the rib, next to the chine bone. Grass fed chine steak is superb!

I’m sharing two posts: three tips for making large batches of soup and how to make sugar-free elderberry “syrup.” Thanks for hosting!
Meghan\’s last post: Sugar-Free Elderberry “Syrup”
I’m super happy to find your Sugar-Free Elderbery syrup. Though after looking at your recipe, it’s more of an infusion (tea) – and freezing it is smart because it’s almost “instant” tea for any time you need it:)
I entered my latest post giving an overview about seafood, including my favorite resource to help choose what seafood to purchase.
This week I’m sharing my Chicken and Spinach Breakfast Sausage and 10 reasons why I eat soup in summer! (and all year round)! Thanks for hosting!
Happy Monday! This week I’m sharing our currant weekly menu plan, along with recipes and to-dos, as well as a raw blueberry kefir smoothie recipe. Thanks for hosting!

i am sharing some ideas on how to buy meat outside of the supermarket system and how to get the most out of it. http://knowthyfood.com/2012/05/14/nose-to-tail-dining/
Happy Monday all!
I’ve posted two recipes – one is a decadent (but still nutritious!) gluten/grain-free chocolate marble torte made with cream cheese, chocolate and carob powder.
The other is a simple and tasty pork in parsley butter.
Thanks for hosting, see you next week
Thanks for hosting!

This is my most popular and personal favorite recipe for hummus that has endured over many years.
Thank you for a great link up!! I just added my giveaway for a totaly natural and “green” monthly feminine product that I love!! Buy once and use again and again. No waste, no monthly cost, and no chemicals inside your body are all great reasons to check it out!!
Oops, I entered my name instead of “Banana Bone Broth Smoothie” as the link title. Sarah inspired me to try bone broth in a smoothie last week. My experiment and a delicious smoothie recipe followed, which I wrote a blog post about.

I love Monday Mania!!! It’s such a splendid mash-up of awesomeness … thank you for hosting!!
My friend and I started a alternative health blog back in February. We share health related articles, natural health and beauty tips, healthy recipes, eco-friendly advice, and more. I posted one of our articles above. http://healthywaysequalshappydays.blogspot.com/2012/05/how-to-prepare-before-you-workout_10.html
For Mother’s Day, I posted ideas for including your little sous chefs in food preparation and talked a bit about why this is worth the hassle
Thanks for hosting!

Thanks for hosting! I posted 29 Ways to Get Cultured Foods into Your Child’s Diet
We hear a lot of moms assume that their kids would never eat cultured foods and wanted to expand their vision of the possibilities. Lots of great options for picky eaters, kids and kids at heart!

Sherry\’s last post: Comment on 29 Kid Friendly Ways to get Cultured Foods into Your Child’s Diet! by Amanda Martin
Loved your post Sherry! I am so glad you shared it!! There are lots of people besides just kids that don’t like cultured foods, too … my husband has a few friends who decline anything that smacks of “health food” (a.k.a. anything that does not come from a vending machine) and sometimes when they come over for dinner … I am at a loss as to what I can feed them!
Mrs H\’s last post: Dinner Menu III
I posted a recipe for Homemade Enchilada Sauce (real food) that blows canned out of the water!
Cristina @ An Organic Wife\’s last post: My Container Garden
There is LOTS of good stuff up today! What a smorgasbord! I posted a recipe for a Cold Overnight Salad (http://dotalanecdotes.blogspot.com/2012/05/dinner-for-hot-day-cold-overnight-salad.html), which just hits the spot when it’s hot and heavy-humid out and you want to get dinner done early in the morning. The recipe calls for mayonnaise, please note that I make my OWN mayonnaise since there is nothing you can buy that beats homemade … especially not “best foods,” ha ha ha what a funny name for a horrid brand. I am going to hit as many posts as I can now to snag awesome recipes and tips for the week. For future reference, do you want our posts to be strictly regarding food? I was thinking about linking to a blog post about my wonderful experience practicing hot yoga every day while pregnant, but as it is not food/kitchen-tips related I didn’t.

I’m so happy to discover this blog carnival! I posted my recipe for Fruit Pizza: http://realfoodrealdeals.com/2012/05/12/fruit-pizza/
Happy Monday
Today I’m sharing a little info on buttermilk.
Kathy (aka Mrs Dull)\’s last post: Buttermilk – A Staple in Grandma’s Kitchen
Thanks for hosting this terrific gathering. I’ve posted an article on a truly artisanal bakery located in Marin County, California. But they do ship! It’s the only bread I’ve been able to find that is stone ground, only made with heritage or GF seed grains, no chemicals of any kind, fermented for 24 hours and hand made with love. Check out the photo essay – you can see the integrity in Mario’s face / owner, chemist, baker.

I shared Baby Arugula with Blueberries and Walnuts, unfortunately, I copied the wrong link on #87, so please delete that one. Sorry about that! #88 is correct and will show an easy, healthy side salad for baby arugula.

Thanks for hosting! I posted on healing depression naturally–a particular passion of mine.

I accidentally used my personal name in the first link rather than the name of the post! SOrry!
Hi and thanks for hosting!
This week I’m sharing my recipe for Hibiscus Tea. Sipping a frosty iced tea is one of the simple joys of summer, and hibiscus elevates the experience to sublime refreshment.
Have a great week!
Emily @ Holistic Kid\’s last post: No Knead Sauerkraut
It’s always a little overwhelming how many great posts get linked up here! I could spend all day going through them. I’ve shared a recipe for a super easy, health and tasty flax meal sandwich bread, it’s gluten and egg free.
Danielle @ Poor and Gluten Free\’s last post: Gluten Free Flax Meal Sandwich Bread
Wonderful variety of posts today! Thanks again for hosting.
Holli\’s last post: Eating for the sunny season: foods that help your skin
I shared my recipe for Apricot Oat Crunchies. These cookies are pretty healthy because they contain dried apricots, dried coconut, oatmeal and cornflakes. This recipe is gluten free, but they can be made using “regular” flour if you don’t have issues with gluten.
My next version of this cookie will be to remake it using liquid stevia and coconut sugar. I will eventually offer all of my recipes with that option as soon as I test them that way.
Thanks for hosting!
Today I am sharing my Quick Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Sauce. It’s so easy to whip up in the blender and serve over pasta, bread, quinoa, or another dinner item.
Kendahl @ Our Nourishing Roots\’s last post: Quick Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto Sauce
So many posts linked up this week! I guess it has been a busy week for health minded people.

Hi thanks again for hosting! This week I shared #3 in my scratch, no canned ingredient marinara series – Mighty Mushroom. I like to buy over-ripe tomatoes at my local Farmer’s Market for $1/lb. I make the sauce ahead and freeze it in a mason jar (leave room for expansion) and use it when I need it. Enjoy!
I linked to an article about a mother’s kitchen sanctuary, and how the motions and rhythms of traditional food preparation a healing and restorative. Thanks for the opportunity, Krista

Hi! I posted my recipe for Coffee Ice Cream suitable for the SCD today (and accidentally linked the white chocolate recipe I linked last week). But since I covered the ice cream in SCD legal white chocolate and hazelnuts perhaps it’s relevant!
Have a lovely week and thank you for hosting!

Thanks for hosting! This week I am talking about how to clean without chemicals and with stupid easy recipes and cheap cleaning supplies. Just because I am a neatnik, does not mean that I am not cheap and little lazy.

Thanks for hosting! I’m always inspired when I check out the links each week! Today, I’m posting about what I’m growing in our vegetable garden and a natural fertilizer called comfrey.
