Monday Morning Recipe

We are a family on the run like so many others. I try to have hearty snacks with us to stave off the question "Can we stop at......(fill in with any fast food restaurant)?" This recipe is good for breakfast, lunch with soup, or it fills the bill as a portable snack.

Ham and Cheese Scones

Combine:
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

Cut in:
2 Tablespoons cold butter

Add:
1/2 cup chopped ham (or turkey)
1/2 cup cheese (I have used swiss, cheddar, mixture all are good)
1 cup milk

Quickly combine to form a ball. Flatten into a 1/2" thick circle. Cut into wedges. Place on a cookie sheet, sprinkle cheese on top.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
