Welcome to another Hearth and Soul Hop, the blog carnival for and about food that nourishes both body and soul.

We share links to Hearth and Soul entries at our Hearth and Soul Facebook Page and Pinterest Boards, and please do come and follow us on Twitter  @HearthNSoulHop.

I found so much great recipe inspiration at Hearth and Soul last week. My highlights from visits to contributors include:

Wonderful butter-free, gluten-free, vegan treat - Indian Cashew Fudge

Perfect for holiday entertaining - Warm Blue Cheese Bacon Dip

Wholesome, homemade, freeze-able Pita Pockets

and comforting and delicious Italian Sausage with Bow Tie Pasta

If you are new, please read the Hearth and Soul Hop mission statement which includes the rules for linking up. As always, if you have any questions please email me at april@21stcenturyhousewife.com

Please link a recipe using the linky tools below. 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 written in a positive and loving light are also welcome.

Please include a link back to one/any of the host sites (through worded link or badge) in individual post, not just on the sidebar…although we love having links on your page, as well. The Hearth & Soul Blog Hop hosts include:

Alea of Premeditated Leftovers

Melynda of Mom’s Sunday Café

Swathi of Zesty South Indian Kitchen

Penny of Penniless Parenting

and me, April of The 21st Century Housewife

Please link a post that closely fits into the mission.

The linky will stay open from 4:00 a.m. EST Tuesday (That will be 1:00 am PST or 8:00 am GMT) to 11:59 pm Thursday (Eastern time).
