Fat Tuesday: November 29, 2011

RFF Food Carnival

It’s that time of the week when real foodies come together for a food festival! Fat Tuesday is the official start of Mardi Gras and here at Real Food Forager we are having our own Fat Tuesday Forager Festival! Every Tuesday come join in this Real Food Free For All!

Link up your great real food recipes, natural remedies, posts, articles and book reviews about real food, food politics, green living and our food supply.

Special diet recipes are welcome such as SCD, GAPS, gluten free, dairy free, sugar-free, Paleo, Primal, all are welcome as long as they involve REAL FOOD. Please feel free to post your recipe in the comments section if you are not a blogger.

Giveaways are welcome as long as they involve only real food items or cool kitchen tools. Pretty much anything goes — it’s party time!

The Rules are simple:

1 — No artificial ingredients. Nothing commercially canned, packaged or processed. No fake foods. No soy or tofu, no artificial sweeteners like Splenda, no bad fats like margarine, soybean or corn oil. You get the idea.

2 — Provide a link back to this post on your site (a common courtesy).

3 — Please do not make me delete any non real food linkups. Please don’t link them here. This is a place for real food recipes and issues.

4 — Please link the URL of your actual blog post and not your blog’s home page.

5 — Be kind and come back and leave a comment after linking up. And check out some of the links. There is a wealth of knowledge here.

Be sure to visit on Sunday for Sunday Snippets, a weekly post that features recipes and articles from the previous Fat Tuesday. The next feature could be yours so be sure to check back!

    Thank you so much for hosting! I shared a Celery Root Mash recipe. It’s SO delicious and better than mashed potatoes in my opinion. Thanks again.

    I made eggnog for breakfast this morning (sans alcohol, no worries), and it was a fabulous, festive, nutrient-dense drink to have first thing in the morning.  You can make this traditionally with a garnish of nutmeg and a cinnamon stick, but also use for making eggnog ice cream, eggnog smoothies (blend with ice), eggnog lattes (blend with ice and coffee), or just a simple coffee creamer.  Happy holidays!

    I put together a collection of some of my favorite links from this past month.  I got from (delicious!) home remedies, to interesting discussions about magnesium, to delectable recipes from Thanksgiving and even looking forward to Christmas (Buche de Noel, anyone?).  Enjoy!  

    And please come and share your favorite links in the comments!

    Thanks for hosting, Jill.  Today I linked up a post that discusses the FDAs official policy that directly tells consumers that we do not have the right to choose the foods we eat.
    “FDA to Consumers- “You Do Not Have the Right to Choose the Food You Eat”" – http://commonsensehomesteading.blogspot.com/2011/09/fda-to-consumers-you-do-not-have-right.html

    Toxic GMOs and “reprocessing” are fine, but real food is getting harder and harder to find.

    Such great recipes and articles! I posted my Cherry “Soda” recipe made with 3 pure ingredients. Happy Tuesday!

    I hope it is all right that I added two recipes, butternut squash soup and lemon chicken.  I just watched your salmon patty video and it is making me hungry.  I am a huge fan of salmon and this seems to be a good way to make it.

    Today I have a duo of fudge recipes that are made from wholesome honey and coconut.  But they aren’t ordinary!  The Chocolate Peppermint Fudge is absolutely divine, and the Coconut Citrus Fudge is so light and clean.  Perfect for the holidays, and perfect for getting more coconut oil into your diet.
