Sun Dried Tomato Goat Cheese Muffins Recipe
How about a cheese muffins recipe this week ? Yesterday I spent my entire morning running errands in the rain. It was so amazing, almost like running around in the snow, and that’s because we haven’t really seen real rain in about 4 years. So I want to say Thank You God and the Universe for the much-needed rain, Amen ! We definitely have a whole new appreciation level for rain drops here in California, and for that fresh rainy air smell. Seems to be true, you don’t know what you have until its gone.
Now you know it takes a lot of energy running around taking care of business, and I started to crave something freshly baked, comforting, but not sugary, something cheesy. Cheese muffins recipe s are becoming a thing you know.. I wanted something that would make a good breakfast to go, on mornings when I don’t have 3 extra minutes to crack some eggs in a pan, and another 3 minutes to eat. It happens, you know this, it probably happened to you today ! Did it ?!
Long story short, I got home and whipped up this savory cheese muffins recipe with that creamy goat cheese and sun-dried tomatoes I picked up at the market. It was exactly what I need on a wet rainy day, and most definitely what I needed for breakfast this morning.
I hope you give them a try, and keep some on your kitchen counter for mornings when you need to grab something nutritious on your way out the door. I won’t lie tough, my blueberry and ricotta muffins recipe is still my favorite muffin recipe on the planet. This goat cheese muffins recipe is savory and definitely a keeper.
