When a muffin is not a muffin

One of my friends had Taco "muffins" in her diary. I have never heard of them, but they sounded good, so I hunted them down. I'm sure that to some people this is old news - but I figure if it was new to me, there are others who haven't yet heard either! LOL

I found a site with a bunch of different things made in muffin tins. All of the recipes are WW friendly - I like that they are all portion controlled. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, and maybe even dessert - lots of ideas here. Once you get to looking, you can see all sorts of ways to modify them to suit your particular diet needs and create your own.

    I believe that is truly a calorie negative thing to eat.

    These look so good! Seems like a great way to portion out lunches - and easy to pack and heat up at the office! I am going to have to add these muffins to my list of new healthy meals to try out :)
