Hey everyone! Welcome back to Sunday School! This is our weekly time to teach, learn, share, and reflect on all that is Real Food blogland. I’ll start by posting my usual blurbs and links to my latest favorite blog posts, followed by featured submissions to the carnival, then opening it up for links!
Lesson Notes: Links from Real Food Bloggers
Pomegranate Orange Salad: Aaah, what a delightfully refreshing dish to have amongst all the heavy, rich holiday foods we’re eating this time of year! Mmm. Another great recipe from Traditional Foods!
5 Holiday Uses for Yogurt: This post is a part of a series of flu-fighting foods found at The Humbled Homemaker. Yep, getting in some good probiotic-rich yogurt (especially when made at home), is a great way to stay well this season. Find out five great ways to include it into your diet!
Christmas Gifts-in-a-Jar: I love the recipe for Cranberry Christmas Bread in this post from Kelly Smith of The Better Mom — layer all the ingredients in a cute jar, and you’ve got not only a great homemade gift, but a great way to introduce the concept of soaking grains to a loved one!
Teachers of the Week!
Show & Tell — It’s Blog Hop Time!
Classroom Rules:
- Please only link to posts covering real rood or healthy lifestyle-related topics. In my eyes, this includes nourishing recipes, articles about (real!) nutrition, tutorials, discussions of food politics, homesteading, tips and tricks for keeping a green, healthy home, and other healthy, holistic living topics! If you’re a B.B. subscriber, you know that I myself don’t only blog about food — sometimes I write about pretty random things — but it all relates to simple, healthy living that goes against the grains of conventional wisdom.
- If you do post a recipe, please don’t include any fake or weird, chemically ingredients! No vegetable oils, processed sugar, white flours (well, maybe here and there is okay, even Sally uses all-purpose flour for pie crust sometimes), hydrolyzed soy protein, powdered eggs/whey/protein/ANYTHING, low-fat fakeness, or other non-real “food” product ingredients! If you’re unsure what Real Food is all about, just poke around this site and the ones listed on my blogroll, and you’ll start to see. Or just raise your hand and someone will call on you! (email or comment.)
- Please update your post with a link back to this Sunday School post, so your readers can get in on all the learnin’ going on here! A simple, “This post is linked to Sunday School at Butter Believer!” is perfect. Just blog carnival courtesy, is all!
- I can’t imagine having to do so, but if our rules aren’t followed by certain links, I guess I’ll have to delete them. I’m sure everyone is more than capable of playing nice, though!

Happy Sunday Emily! 🙂 Great choices above. I loved the article from The Humbled Homemaker about using yogurt. Top notch.
ButterBeliever says
Thanks Stace, same to you! 😀 Oh yeah, such good ideas in that one. Yogurt is awesome!
Corryn says
Thank you again for hosting a blog carnival! I linked to one of my posts.
Soli @ I Believe In Butter says
Hi Emily! Today I’ve got my post about my personal challenge to make more gifts for the holidays, along with the storefronts of some friends with interesting potential gifts.
Jessica @ Delicious Obsessions says
Hey Emily! Thanks for featuring my coconut oil post! Much appreciated! 🙂
Laura @ Gluten Free Pantry says
Thanks for hosting another great Blog Carnival! I shared my Pomegranate Ice Cream (Dairy Free) this week.
Lisa @ Real Food Digest says
Hi Emily, thanks for hosting!
I’m sharing my solution for my busy weekday mornings- I sat down with my kids and created a breakfast and school lunch schedule, no more “what do you want for breakfast” everyday.
Jen says
Hi Emily, I posted a recipe for Cream of mushroom soup! It’s da bomb! 🙂 We also started a series on Body Image. Part one is posted.
BTW- just learning about Stumble. I stumbled your carnival. Whatever that means. 🙂
Stealthy Mom says
Howdy! Link#24… I meant it to say “Make Cottage Cheese from Out of Date Milk.” Oops! Enjoy the recipe!
I especially enjoy your articles about raw milk. I was raised on it and turned out okay. Too bad it’s illegal to procure in Iowa. (Meanwhile it is illegal to label if milk does NOT contain artificial growth hormones. Go Monsanto go!)
If you browse my recipe site, you will see that I do cook with regular unbleached flour and, as sparingly as I can, white sugar. We live in a rural area and try to stay with what we can buy locally. I bug and bug and bug our local grocery store to carry more organic food. Slowly, slowly, slowly, healthier choices are arriving on the shelves.
Have a great week!
Kelly @ The Nourishing Home says
Thanks so much for the shout out! You are so kind! So glad you enjoyed the Cranberry Bread in a Jar Gift recipe! Blessings to you, Kelly
Tracee says

Tessa Domestic Diva says
I totally eyed the fudge from Nourishing Roots, I cook with coconut oil all the time and love it!! thanks for hosting, i shared two recipes (no bake cookies and mint truffles), also much healthier treats!
Emma - Craving Fresh says
Hey Emily, thanks for hosting this again.
I’ve posted a link to my review of Sweet Poison. It’s a pretty fun read, considering it focuses on how evil sugar is. (Why did it have to be sweet, sweet sugar that’s the bad guy?)
Anyway, I hope you have a good week!
