This Cheese and Tomato Scone Recipe absolutely proves that scones aren't only there for the jam and cream combo that we all love!A good savoury scone is just as good as its more traditional fruit cousin and I promise that this Cheese and Tomato Scone recipe is going to be your new go-to scone recipe!Before we start though, let's clear up something important - how do you pronounce the word scone?

Instant Pot minced beef and onions were on our menu yesterday for tea so I thought I'd share how I make it with you.  My Slow Cooker Minced Beef and Onions blog post is one of my most popular posts and every Sunday, without fail, it will be in my top 5 viewed posts because people are no doubt making that for Sunday Dinner instead of a full-on roast dinner.  I don't blame them at all as it's such an easy meal to make and tastes amazing for something with so little effort needed but a couple of weeks ago, I thought I'd try making it in the Instant Pot instead.
