Broccoli Muffins

Son sick, husband traveling and no interesting cooking during all week. Making up something for dinner to end the weekend sounded like a good plan!

I´ve made broccoli muffins, which turned out pretty well considering I didn´t have a recipe... I didn´t even looked for one, I just wanted to try something new, and fast, with the ingredients available in the fridge.

Only ten minutes of preparation, 30 minutes in the oven and ta-da...

You have to admit they look pretty gorgeous and I promise they tasted just as good!

If you´re keen on giving a try to this muffins, here´s the recipe (I made a very small portion):

- 1 cup of flour
- half of cooked broccoli (mine was small)
- 1/3 cheese (whatever cheese you prefer, but choose wisely! I used a goat cheese, Portuguese, which added an amazing flavor)
- 1/4 olive oil
- 1 egg
- Coriander
- salt and pepper
- 1 tea spoon of baking powder - however I don´t think it worked :/

Mix everything very well and cook it for 30 minutes at 180º.

Heavy dinners are really not my thing and these muffins seem a perfect option, to go along with a soup or a salad.

Give it a try!
