Lemon Blueberry Drop Scones

These are really good fruity scones to serve at a dinner party. They're a bit lower in fat than other scone recipes as well. They're super moist, and have a nice authentic "scone" taste! The lemon and blueberry compliment each other very nicely in this recipe.

Lemon Blueberry Drop Scones

Ingredients:
2 cups flour
1/3 cup sugar
2 t baking powder
1 t grated lemon peel
1/2 t baking soda
1/4 t salt
1 cup lemon yogurt
1 egg
1/4 cup butter, melted
1 cup fresh OR frozen blueberries

Glaze Ingredients:
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 T lemon juice
1/2 t grated lemon peel

In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, lemon peel, baking soda, and salt. In another bowl, combine the yogurt, egg and melted butter. Stir into flour mixture just until moistened. Fold in blueberries.

Drop by heaping tablespoonfuls 2 in. apart onto a greased baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 16 minutes or until lightly browned. Combine glaze ingredients, drizzle over warm scones.

*Do not thaw frozen blueberries

As you can see, one is already missing in this picture and this was right after I glazed them...you can probably guess how many are left now!

Fried Rice

Ya'll need an easy, delicious dinner for the week night that feeds a lot? Make some of this fried rice. It's so easy and makes a great side or just a meal all in it's own. I made pork chops to go along with it and cut it into chunks and just threw them in at the end and it worked out perfectly. But I took just the leftover fried rice to work with me the next couple of days after that for lunch and I couldn't get enough. Good tip before you start though is to cook the rice the night before and let it chill in the fridge. Cuts out a lot of time waiting for it to cook and chill. Minimal ingredients with great flavor! I had pretty much everything I needed in my fridge and pantry (other than green onions) to make this. Ingredients: 2T butter, divided 3 eggs, whisked 2 medium carrots, diced into small pieces 1 small onion, diced into small pieces 3 cloves of garlic, minced 1 cup of frozen peas, thawed 4 cups cooked and chilled rice 3T soy sauce 2T oyster sau...

No Bake Peanut Butter Cookies

I'm not going to lie, I had no idea what a "no bake" was until a friend of mine told me his favorite cookies were no bakes (this was around Christmas time when I go cookie crazy!). So I looked up a recipe and ended up falling in LOVE with them. They're so quick to make. This recipe here took me (start to finish) 20 minutes to do. So if you want something sweet and have nothing in the pantry to snack on, just whip these up super quick (because you should have everything you need already at home!) and enjoy! No Bake Peanut Butter Cookies Ingredients: - 2 cups sugar - 1/4 cup margarine - 1/2 cup milk - 1 cup peanut butter - 1t vanilla - 3 cups rolled oats (old fashioned) In a large saucepan, mix sugar, margarine and milk; bring to a full rolling boil over medium heat. Boil for one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in peanut butter and vanilla, stirring until peanut butter is melted; stir in oats. Working quickly, drop spoonfuls on...
