    I substituted 1 cup yogurt plus 1 tsp baking soda instead of 1 cup sour cream. It was wonderful! Not quite as lemony tasting as I was expecting but very good. It was even very good later in the day eaten cold, and warmed up very nice in the microwave. - 8/19/09

    you're welcome; glad you enjoyed; like most of you i'm always searching out recipes that are good but balance the calorie act out and breads are particularly challenging.
