Blueberry Muffins


So I had planned to post a Mardi Gras recipe that I made on Fat Tuesday, but I'm unable to download my pictures right now.

You see, my computer attracted a nasty virus which disabled all my programs. I repeat...all of my programs.

I had to spend all weekend trying to remove the virus and just get the computer back up and in a basic working mode.

So today, when I went to download my pictures...no program...it's gone...clapooey....drats.
So I'll have to work on that and I'll post that great recipe for Jambalaya in a few days.

In the meantime I hope you enjoy this super yummy breakfast recipe:  Blueberry Muffins.

This is a variation on my Basic Muffin Recipe.  You can find the link to the recipe for the basic muffins here:  Basic Muffin Recipe - Lower Carb version

To the basic recipe you add 1 cup of blueberries, fresh or frozen.  I had some left over from the Blueberry Bread I made last week.


Make sure to add these last, and fold them in to the batter.

Spoon the batter in to a prepared muffin tin.


Bake at 425 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.


Smell that blueberry aroma?  Heaven....

Serve and enjoy the sweet, plump blueberries!


Scrumptious!!


Next time I'll add in some lemon zest too!
