These muffins are not just healthy but delicious.

It’s not easy to get your kids to eat vegetables, or much of anything healthy. Maybe you are blessed with vegetable, fruit and whole grain loving kids, and if so, congrats. But for me - well, let’s just say I have my own ways to get my children hooked on healthy foods. Two of my three children are picky eaters, and green is not their favorite color, or flavor. Believe me, it’s not just those pre-schoolers that throw food. If you have a tween in your life, you know it’s tough to add healthful green food choices for them.

So I put on my best smile and invited 2 12 year-old girls to join my daughter for a fun tea party. On the menu were 5 types of muffins, filled with healthy ingredients from Garden Lites, called Veggie Muffins. Garden Lites Veggie Muffins™ are gluten-free, vegetarian, low in calories, high in fiber and Kosher Parve. You find them in the frozen foods aisle, and can either thaw them at room temperature or microwave for 35 seconds.
