I was curious if anyone has any healthy muffin/breakfast cookie recipes? I'm really on the go in the morning, and sometimes I just don't have enough time to make something to eat. I'd love to have some muffins on stand by just for those occasions! I've tried a couple of recipes on the web, but I just haven't cared for them all that much. Anything would be much appreciated : )

    I also find crustless quiches to be a good one to have in the freezer. South Beach has a decent recipe that you can experiment with to find the right veggie mix for you. http://allrecipes.com//Recipe/vegetable-quiche-cups-to-go/Detail.aspx

    This is a good one too! I found it in this site and they are super yuuumy!

    Microwaveable Protein Cupcakes

    1/2 scoop cocoa protein powder (appx. 1.5 tbsp)
    1 tbsp cocoa powder
    1/4 tsp. baking powder
    2 tsp. sugar or whatever sweetener you like
    1 egg white
    1 tbsp applesauce or pumpkin

    Mix the first 4 ingredients in a coffee mug - mix in the egg white and pumpkin. Stir until the batter is thick.

    Microwave for 1 minute, loosen cake with knife around edges, and flip mug over plate to gently release it.

    Cut the cake in half and top it with your favorite spread! I had mine with peanut butter, but you could do cream cheese, yogurt, etc.

    Each cake has approximately 90 calories, 6 grams of fat, and about 10 grams protein! (without topping)

    1 tsp lemon peel, grated

    1 cup all purpose flour
    2/3 cup brown sugar, packed
    1/2 cup low fat granola
    1 Tbs. baking powder
    1/2 tsp salt
    1-1/4 cup pear, chopped

    Directions
    1. preheat oven to 350 degrees
    2. whisk together first five ingredients in a lg bowl to blend.
    3. stir both flours and sugar in medium bowl until no sugar lumps remain.
    4. mix granola, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt. add pear; toss to coat. stir flour mix into egg mix until blended(batter will be thick). divide among 10 prepared muffin cups.
