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 hosting, Kimi. Today I linked up a post on how to make homemade elderberry syrup and jelly, which is so much more economical than similar purchased products. It’s great to have on hand for the cold and flu season. http://commonsensehomesteading.blogspot.com/2011/09/elderberries-how-to-make-syrups-and.html

i had to shared this recipe for vegan taco salad – if you don’t like creepy fake meat, but you eat vegetarian, try out the homemade vegan taco salad recipe. It’s made with vegetables straight from the garden to the table. No processing except what you do with your own food processor.

Want to easily make whey and cream cheese? Also, what do you do with the whey once you make it? I have some of our meal plan this week, which includes lots of yummy recipes using the whey.

I shared a whole grain cookie… chocolate and buckwheat! It uses cocoa and baking chocolate so you can totally control the type of sugar used.
