There are two things to win so far this week! (And look for a huge giveaway coming up later in the week too!). Check out how to win 1o pounds of RealSalt, or, get this, a Blendtec Blender here!
It’s time to share your frugal and nourishing tips and recipes! Where do you shop for quality food at a lower price? What recipe saves a penny? How do you balance a budget with nourishing food? Share here.
Please read through the three simple rules for those participating. This helps keep the quality of our carnival. Please read them through before linking and thanks again for your continued participation.
1) No linking to giveaways or promotions for affiliates or sponsors. One thing that I’ve noticed increasingly on Pennywise Platter is that I am getting more and more promotional pieces for affiliates or sponsors and a lot of giveaways. I’ve decided to keep Pennywise less “commercial” and more in tune with the spirit of the carnival by not allowing these links anymore. There was nothing wrong with those of you who linked to them, I just think that it will protect the integrity of our carnival better without them. Plus, it makes our links valuable in the future as well. A link to a giveaway three months old isn’t going to be worth browsing in three months time, but a link to a recipe for a frugal soup would be. I will be deleting any giveaway links or promotional links.
2) Keep the ingredients “nourishing”, such as whole grains, meats, vegetables, legumes, unrefined salt and sugars, chicken, etc. I am not going to be an ingredient police every week, but if there is a link to a post that is obviously not filling any of the criteria for healthy (for example, a white flour, white sugar birthday cake), I will delete that link. However, feel free to post vegetarian, vegan, raw, low-carb, etc.
3) Link back to the carnival This is common carnival courtesy. And more then that, it helps build the community of the carnival as you are sending your readers to others participating. And please, as a blogger, check out other’s posts and leave a comment! I know that we would all love to hear from each other.

Thanks for hostin! This week I’ve got two posts to share. The first is my response to Dr. Oz’s article in Time implying that organic food buyers are food snobs. The next is my recipe for mashed potatoes like Grandma made.

Thanks for hosting! I love to come here and see what everyone else is up to. I linked up a seriously easy recipe for handmade salami, and some recipes for spiced nuts. I am working up some homemade mustards to go along with it for Holiday gift giving this year.

Hi, Thanks for hosting! This week I’m linking up a recipe for White Chocolate Bark with Pistachios & Cranberries. Pistachios and cherries lend some Christmas cheer to this mildly sweet, homemade white chocolate bark.
Enjoy!
