If you took a peek in my fridge sometime in the last few weeks, you’d see that it is stuffed full of fresh fruits and vegetables as we’re trying to eat a bit healthier. Especially those of us who have 13 pounds of baby weight left to lose. I’ve been all about the dark leafy greens, fresh fruit and lots of protein.
The week before last, I might’ve gotten a little carried away when I spied an amazing deal on strawberries. I knew that it was likely we weren’t going to be able to eat them all before they started to go bad so into a recipe they went! Specifically these Strawberry Lemonade Scones. They really should be called something like “Stuffed with Strawberries Lemonade Scones” for the large amount of fruit that is folded into the batter. The more the merrier, right?
And as I’ve been trying to eat protein at every meal and snack, I decided to add even more strawberry flavor to these treats by using Silk Dairy-Free Yogurt Alternative. Made from the goodness of plants instead of dairy, Silk Dairy-Free provides 6 grams of soy protein per serving, with no cholesterol. I swear if you pull the lid back on the packaging it smells just like fresh strawberries. So good!

The hardest part of making these Strawberry Lemonade Scones? Allowing them to cool once you take them out of the oven so you can add the delicious lemon sugar glaze. They’re simply irresistable and just begging for you to take a bite!
