Things are hoppin at the blog hop!
Hello all! Are you ready for another recipe blog hop!? What is a blog hop you ask? Well, you can find out by visiting my Two for Tuesday Recipe Blog Hop page for a complete explanation, but basically, it is a way to link together various foodie love blogs so that you can enjoy many new healthy food recipes that you might not have been exposed to before!
Right now, A Moderate Life, Girlichef, Renderinglard and Frugalcrunchychristy are teaming up to share the Blog Hop with their audiences. If you haven’t been to their blogs before, then you certainly should, as they are tremendously creative cooks who are passionate about health and food and all are taking steps to cook more wholesome and soul nourishing food. This means you get exposure to four blog audiences for the price of one link, so we should really rename this 4 for Tuesday! 
So, please link a recipe or two using the linky tools below and your link will be shared over 4 different blogs and with 4 different blog audiences. Recipes should include healthy ingredients and can be old or new recipes or posts. Articles on real food, slow food, foraging, herbal remedies, local food, sustainable food, organics, gardening or any healthy eating information is also welcome. Each participant’s link will be tweeted and commented on by each of the blog hosts to increase your exposure.
Please use your best blog carnival etiquette and use the URL to your post, and not your blog landing page. Please post a link in your article back to the blog you are using the Linky Tools with and if you want to, please share one of the badges listed below to promote the Blog Hop. We would ask you to subscribe to our feed and Tweet the Blog Hop as well if you would be so kind!
Here are two Two for Tuesday Recipe Blog Hop Badges to choose from!
I hope you enjoy this blog hop and see an increase in your traffic as well. Please visit my foodie love sister sites for tons more wholesome and passionate food inspiration! This week, I decided to see if I could take a food that was viewed as unhealthy (ramien noodles) and transform it into a nourishing meal! Please check out my Egg Drop Noodle Soup recipe to see how I did. You can also check out some of my previous real food recipes on my Featured Blog Hop Recipe Page and if you missed earlier Blog Hops you can also check them out! Bon Appetit!
Here is the linky! You may post up to two Urls for each blog participating. Please leave a comment below after you have linked up explaining what your link is about and sharing the real food love! The linky is OPEN for a FULL WEEK so If you come for a late visit and still want to link up, please feel free to do so!
****SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT!****In the near future there will be some changes to the blog hop to better reflect our group beliefs around food. We all connected over the concept of “real food” but we all find that that term does not adequately define who we are, which is a group of passionate, loving, creative, earth friendly people who enjoy the miracle of food and believe strongly in the soul nourishing power of food and in the health benefits of the LOVE put into cooking. We will be exploring that more fully with you all and inviting you to join us in our journey to finding peace with food and immersing yourself fully in the JOY of it!
Happy hopping everyone!
This linky list is now closed.

Your egg drop noodle soup looks and sounds just wonderful! I’m so sorry my stir fry link went up twice. It didn’t appear the first time I linked even after refreshing the page several times and going away and leaving it for a bit – but then when I tried to link up again it appeared twice. I don’t know what I did wrong – maybe you can delete one of them for me? *embarrassed blushing* Thanks so much for hosting Two for Tuesday – I’m looking forward to the new ideas you all have in store for this blog hop too!

Love the Two For Tuesday Blog Hop! I have a ton of basil growing in my yard, frankly it’s the only thing growing as my whole mini garden basically died on me. We moved last fall to a rental property and are questioning the quality of the soil now that even my flowers aren’t doing to well. You live and you learn!
Since I do have basil and tons and tons of it, I made some fresh pesto, stuck it in the freezer (after enjoying plenty) to be pulled out on one cold January day when I need a reminder of summer!
For those of you who have left comments on my previous posts on my blog Thanks! I appreciate everyone’s friendliness!

Hi Everyone, I am sharing one of my most popular videoblogs this week .. how to make healthy cold cereal! Take the challenge and go to your pantry and throw out all those boxes of toxic, unhealthy breakfast cereal and learn to make your own healthy version that is delicious!!

I have found quite a few new food blogs (new for me) because of this blog hop. Today I entered the hop for the third time via ‘girlichef’. Thanks so much for the opportunity to take part in the hop. This was truly a great idea.

Hi Alex! My vow to be earlier this week didn’t happen…I had an early morning appointment and am just getting home. I love that you’re group is going to redefine your theme – not because I don’t love real food but because it’s almost, dare I say, “overused.”
I’ve started to look forward to your event and it’s so much fun to see so many people joining in. Keep up the awesome work, my friend! Hugs!!

Contrary to what others are saying I feel your weblog could truly use some work. I cannot even work out how to subscribe for your RSS.

I made the grilled kale and it was EXCELLENT! I was never a big fan of kale, but decided to try it this year when my local farm delivered a bunch. It’s easy to make it too bitter, but when you find a good recipe, it is SO GOOD!
