Zucchini Muffins
My toddler loves this as a meal, snack or just because. I usually make a batch and send one to daycare everyday in case he doesn’t like the food they are serving because he would probably eat this 9 times out of 10! It is also a great snack for adults. Awesome for meal prep as a side. They can also be frozen and warmed in 30 – 45 seconds in the microwave. Give it a try, healthy and delicious!
