My husband went to an auction tonight and I had Zumba so I was looking for a meal that was quick, easy, and light. I went for chicken and vegetable pasta in a white wine sauce. I usually accompany my pastas with garlic bread, but that seemed awfully heavy and fattening for an aerobics night. I came across a recipe for bacon and tomato scones that were fast and easy to make and I just happen to have all the ingredients.
On a quick note, I had difficulty finding the sundried tomatoes that weren’t packed in olive oil. After asking a few people, I found them in the produce section near the garlic.
These scones are simple and fast. They have that homemade bread taste but don’t have yeast in them so they don’t have to rise. I ended up putting sundried tomatoes in my pasta to tie the scones in with the meal perfectly. They scones only have to cook for 12 minutes and taste great when they are warm. They are a great savory bread that would be a great compliment to many different meals.
