Description

Muffins don't have to be bad for you. Ours use the last of the season's squash, complimented with tangy feta. A great salad side, or even toast for breakfast.

Ingredients

  • 2 T olive oil
  • 2 c squash, cut into 1/4 inch cubes
  • 1 c chopped fresh spinach
  • 2 T parsley, chopped
  • 1⁄2 c grated parmesan
  • 1 c cubed feta
  • 2 t dijon mustard
  • 2 eggs
  • 3⁄4 c milk
  • 2 c whole wheat flour

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Spray muffin tin with non-stick spray.

Toss the squash in olive oil, salt and pepper and arrange on a baking sheet. Bake for 20 minutes or until soft and set aside to cool. Transfer 1/2 of the squash mixture to a boil along with the spinach, parsley, cheeses and mustard and gently stir. In a separate bowl, mix the eggs and milk together. Add the squash mixture and then the flour and baking powder. Add salt and pepper.

Spoon the mixture into the pan, filling 3/4 full and and bake 20 minutes.
