Here’s a really easy recipe to follow that makes Bacon and cheese muffins, a delicious snack that is ideal for picnics or lunch boxes. It takes 15 minutes to prepare and 12 to cook
We had them for a snack lunch with vegetable sticks and they were devoured in minutes with cries of ‘Can I have some more please mum!’
Music to my ears
