¼ cup sour cream (reduced fat)
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg
2-4 slices cooked, chopped turkey bacon
1 chopped green onion
Preparation

- In mixing bowl, mix flour, salt, baking soda, baking powder, butter, cheeses, sour cream, buttermilk, egg, bacon, and green onion until mixture becomes dough.

Chefs’ tips
- When cracking an egg, a stray piece of shell may fall in with it. Remove quickly by scooping it up with a larger piece of eggshell.
- To maintain freshness, wash green onions immediately when you bring them home from the store. Dry off and store wrapped up in paper towels in a Ziploc® Brand Bag in refrigerator.
- Place dried herbs in mortar and pestle and gently crush to draw out flavor. If you do not own a mortar and pestle, gently rub herbs with both hands.
