Savory scones using the humble but super-healthy green onion. Perfect for your picnic.
Do you use green onions on as a garnish?
Green onions are often sprinkled on dishes as a topper, a garnish — and as an afterthought. But in these tender, buttery scones, spring onions shine. They add the freshness of herbs, but are not too delicate to stand up to hearty whole-wheat flour.
Green onions are also super healthy.
These Spring Onion and Parmesan Whole-Wheat Scones are my latest recipe for Food Network’s Healthy Eats blog. Perfect for a picnic: Spring Onion and Parmesan Whole-Wheat Scones via @TspCurry Click To Tweet
Here’s hoping you get a chance to bake up a batch soon (they take only 20 minutes in the oven – so the oven won’t heat up your kitchen too long!)
Would you take these on a picnic? What do you take on picnics?

I think I crave scones every day! I know that's what I choose whenever I go to a bakery. And already this summer, I've made coconut lemon and these and another recipe for raisin scones. Thanks Rachel!
