Welcome to the home page for 30 Days to a Food Revolution.  Inspired by Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution to make a difference I have asked 30 different bloggers to join me in sharing how to shift from processed foods or unhealthy foods to the foods our bodies need and love.

30 days, 30 different food blogs, 30 ways to eat real food!

April 26th – June 4th

Scroll down to see each blog, their recipe and tip, and which day they posted.  Click on the Day listed to see their post, click on the name of the blog to visit their blog.

Each food blogger will guest post on this site sharing their point of view and a recipe that is good for our bodies.  This recipe could be a remake of a popular processed food which was originally taken from a traditional meal cooked in someone’s kitchen.   So really they are taking the meal full circle.

The goal is to create a resource for people looking to make a difference after following Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution.  People looking for help on how to cook something they’ve always pulled from a box or maybe just reevaluating your diet.

9 Cookbooks to Win!  Entries are now Closed.  Winners announced soon!

Many of the guest bloggers have also written cookbooks or have services they are willing to share.   In order to be entered to win one of those, here’s what you need to do to gather entries into the drawing.  The more you do, the more chances you have to win!

  1. Leave a comment on this blog on as many of the 30 guest food bloggers as you like.  Each comment is an entry.
  2. Sign up for The W.H.O.L.E. Gang newsletter.
  3. Visit that guest blogger’s site and leave a comment there too.
  4. Tweet about this project using both of these in your tweet so I’ll find you  #30days2 #foodrevolution

When the initial 30 days of guest posts are over on June 4th, we’ll pick the winners.

Here are the prizes:

Carrie (Ginger Lemon Girl) will donate a free 30 minute gluten free baking question/answer coaching session and a fresh loaf of gluten free bread (mailed 2 day priority).

Such an awesome thing to start! I worked on the show and loved every second of the 16 hour days and swollen feet too boot! If you need another guest poster I’d love to be involved. Our work down in Huntington with the school is on going but we need nationwide support to keep the revolution alive!

Ricki April 27, 2010 at 10:23 am

Just found your blog via Aubree–what a great site! I am thrilled to see such an event–it’s how I eat anyway! :) Looking forward to finding many more recipes to make.

Brandi Hegerty April 27, 2010 at 4:06 pm

I am so blessed to have found so many wonderful websites that are focused on healthy eating, allergy awareness, and recipies to go along with it….I am also concerned about the dietary fare at our schools. It’s AWFUL…..thanks for spreading the word.

Stephanie I April 28, 2010 at 9:33 am

I just found your blog and am so excited to follow this 30-day revolution! Thank you for making these ideas and strategies accesible!

Shannon April 28, 2010 at 2:15 pm

Having a celiac for a spouse, this blog makes me very excited for some great inspiration!

kelly cooper April 28, 2010 at 7:48 pm

We overhauled how we eat last year (and still overhauling!), but we got rid of all artificial flavors/colors, BHT, TBHQ, HFCS, and gluten just to name a few. It has been a good thing!

kelly cooper April 28, 2010 at 7:50 pm

lovelovelove Gingerlemongirl! You rock Carrie!

kelly cooper April 28, 2010 at 7:50 pm

Just found gluten free and sugar free blog a few weeks ago. So refreshing!

kelly cooper April 28, 2010 at 7:51 pm

kelly cooper April 28, 2010 at 7:53 pm

I am in gf heaven right now, just had a chance to check out the Spunky Coconut too. Thank you all for such informative wonderful, healthy gf blogs!!!! woohooo! (my kids thankyou too.)

Love the badge but had to redo all the quotation marks – just a suggestion in case others are having problems with it displaying. Might be a WordPress thing but my dev husband got it to work. Needs all Ascii quotes to show. Love it – thanks!

Linda Dubbeldam May 2, 2010 at 8:06 am

Hi, what a good idea! I placed the badge on my glutenfree blog, because it really appeals to me and my idea of healthy glutenfree cooking and living!
have a nice day, Linda

Cheryl Padilla May 2, 2010 at 5:59 pm

Gluten free is just a start, we also have discovered eating for your blood type, what we thought were healthy foods for me was not the case for everyone in the household. Take it one step further and check out eating for (four) your type. Have only been at this for about two weeks, and have seen a tremendous difference in how we feel. Having three different blood types in the house has been a challenge when it comes to common foods, but can make such a difference in more ways than I ever thought it could.

Marissa May 2, 2010 at 6:06 pm

I’m so excited to have found this site! I have shared it with so many people since! I appreciate all of the passion and recipes and tips and information being provided. I am still in the baby-stages of being gluten-free and working through some of the emotional pieces tied into it. So I thank you all for your support, through your words and your stories – it is part of what keeps me moving forward knowing that there are so many ways to enjoy cooking, eating and living life while gluten-free.
Blessings,
Marissa
