For my children, snacks are life. If I don’t have snacks available for when they get home from school it really is the end of the world!

So, snacks that I can quickly make in bulk, and freeze if necessary, make their way onto my meal plans so that I can plan in when to prepare them (or, even better, get the kids to make them) and ensure I have the ingredients to hand. If they’re on my meal plan, it’s also easier for me to offer a variety of snacks over the weeks so they don’t get sick of the same ones. 

These savoury muffins are great for snacks and whilst the recipe calls for courgette, spinach and cheese, they’re incredibly versatile and perfect for using up bits and pieces as well as getting the veg your children wouldn’t normally eat into them.
