Directions
Bacon, Egg and Cheddar Scones, This wonderful recipe is from The Cheese Lover’s Cookbook and Guide by Paula Lambert, adapted slightly cause I want MORE of everything These scones also freeze beautifully (fully-baked) I individually wrap in double-foil and then breakfast is ready for me when I don’t have time to make it , What a marvelous idea! You are a wondrous cook Ms Athens, as this is a perfect fix for what my children have requested They want their full Monty for breakfast but have no time to eat it, while I have little time to cook it Now they can walk out the door with a scone, which they adore, in hand and I am thrilled that it is a regular breakfast Fabulous lady, terrific recipe

Note Before You Get Started: Shredding or Cubing the Cheese Depends on Personal Preference; the Shredded Blends Into the Pastry, but the Cubed Leaves Little Chunks of Cheese Throughout. I'm a Libra, So I Do Both. (shred Half and Cube Half ,-) |
