If have plenty of zucchini laying around you need to try these Zucchini Chocolate Chip Muffins. They are healthy, super moist and easy to make.
This recipe makes 12 muffins. I recommend doubling the recipe, because they are that good. I know that when I make them they only last a few days. The kids love them.
Perfect for a quick breakfast or a snack for the kids when they come home from school.
