FRESH HERB MUFFINS



Fresh Herb Muffins image

This is a great savory muffin recipe that I modified from chocolateandzucchini.com. These are a flavorful alternative to a dinner roll and would be great on a picnic or at a bridal shower! Also, feel free to substitute with other herbs! I even "cheated" on a batch and used 2 Tbs of Gourmet Garden Italian herbs--and the muffins still tasted great! (When using Gourmet Garden, I suggest adding it when the pesto is added.) Enjoy!
