Herb Dinner Scones Memorial Weekend 2014 and a "Special" Birthday

My husband turns 65 on Tuesday, so we are having all of his favorite foods.  And of course he is the "Grill Master"!  Not pictured is a pot of baked beans made from scratch.
Beans are done...



I salted my grated cabbage to removed the excess water, this will stop your slaw from becoming watery.  Can you believe all this came from one medium sized cabbage?

 Butter and Herb Scones.
I made these with Fresh Lemon Thyme, Rosemary and 1/2 cup of Asiago Fresco cheese.

Herb Dinner Scones
Recipe from Tractor Supply

Submitted by Evvie Marshall, Helotes, Texas

Evvie is just 18, but she enjoys baking, and herb dinner scones are one of her favorites. "It has been requested for when we have company or we need a bread thing quickly," she writes.
Ingredients
3 cups of flour
1 Tbsp. baking powder
½ tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt (optional)
2 or more Tbsp. dried or fresh herbs (any of your choice)
6-8 Tbsp. butter, to taste
1¼ to 1½ cup of buttermilk, yogurt, or sour cream
Directions

In a medium-sized bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and herbs. Cut in butter using a pastry cutter or your hands. Mix in milk product of your choice, stirring until dough holds together. Transfer dough to a floured surface and flatten into a circle. Cut the dough into triangles, or use a cookie cutter. Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place cut-out dough in a pan and freeze for 30 minutes (Note: you don’t have to freeze the dough, but it helps it to rise better). Take out of freezer and place them right into the oven. Bake 10-15 minutes.
