Ingredients

1/2 lb fresh asparagus, cut into 1/4-inch pieces
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon dill
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 cup cold butter, cut into pieces
3/4 cup nonfat plain yogurt
1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese

Steps:

In a saucepan, bring 1/2 inch of water to a boil. Add the asparagus pieces, cover the pot and let them boil for 3 minutes. Drain asparagus and rinse with cold water, drain well and set aside.
In a bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, baking soda, pepper, dill and cayenne. Cut in butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in yogurt until moistened. Stir in cheese and asparagus.
