Google has expanded the mobile search results carousel to not just include news publisher content but now also include content from Pinterest, Vine, Houzz and The Food Network.

Google announced this on Google+ saying now you can find this carousel when viewing Pinterest pins, Vines, Houzz idea books or Food Network recipes. The carousel will let you slide from left to right through the content items under the search result snippets.

Here is a picture from Google:

Whether you are looking for Pinterest pins, Vines, Houzz idea books or Food Network recipes, you can now browse through more content from your favorite websites within Google search results on your mobile device. Simply swipe through links within a carousel and tap any link to read or watch exactly what you are interested in.

I personally do not see this feature yet but I am sure it will be rolling out in the near future to more and more users.
