Hungry? Didn't I feed you yesterday??? |
You get home after a long day of whatever – work, school,
running errands, being Taxi Mom, a fun day trip with friends. You don’t feel like schlepping around the
kitchen making a big meal for yourself or anyone else, but the
fam/friends/personal tummy are growling and hungry! Whether you are cooking solo or for a big
family, muffin meals are easy, fun and work great! This is a great timesaver that can be made
ahead of time and frozen. Good for
snacks, too, or lunches. What a great
way to prepare healthy meals that can go to the office or lunchroom.

So much of healthy eating is planning and
portion control – and having a stock of muffin meals in the freezer can save you
time, money and the temptation to do a vending machine binge when you’ve
forgotten lunch again. From breakfast to
lunch, to dinner and dessert, these little goodies meet the mark. Even the desserts aren’t off limits – you can
have your dessert and satisfy that sweet tooth craving because you take one –
aha! Have your muffin dessert and eat
it, too!

Here are seven websites (one for each day of the week) offering
some mouth-watering recipes. Remember,
you can always substitute skim milk for cream, low-fat cheese, turkey bacon, etc.,
as there are some that can rack up the fat and calories (one of the links below
is by Weight Watchers). Easy-breezy, fun
for the kids to make and eat, and fast!
Gotta love it. I think I’m going
to make a bunch up this weekend and have them on hand (and then in belly). Enjoy!
Blessings,
Coach Linda
