I love savoury muffins and always have a few stashed in the freezer. They are delicious for breakfast or as a side with soup for lunch. These are so easy to make and can be whipped up and in the oven in minutes.

Tips:

A 120g bag of washed baby spinach makes about a half a cup when wilted in a frying pan with a little bit of butter or oil. I also season it lightly with salt and pepper.

Ridiculous right? However, you don’t need a bunch of super foods to eat healthy. Do I enjoy trying out different things? Yes. Do I prefer purchasing organic? Yes. Do I always eat/buy organic? NO! Why? Because it’s too expensive and too limiting.

What I do, is buy good ingredients and make whatever I can myself; this tzatziki recipe for example, takes around 5 minutes to make and is so much cheaper than buying it ready made.
