Savory Muffins

Whoever invented the muffin pan is a genius. In my mind muffins are one of those perfect foods that you can make work for any meal, from breakfast to dessert and everything in between. Anything goes – egg and bacon muffins, meatloaf muffins, decadent cupcakes. Perfect portable packages.

Bonus? Kids love muffins in all forms, too.

I always have at least one batch of muffins stashed in my freezer for quick breakfasts, snacks, or dinner accompaniments. I’m always on the lookout for new things to add to muffins, and I’m happy to have come up with a recipe for a savory muffin that works at any meal.

These are great with eggs at breakfast, a salad at lunch, and a meaty bowl of chili at dinner. Whole wheat flour and cornmeal help make them hearty, and a kick of flavor comes from a packet of dip mix.

Now, I hadn’t tried dip mixes in years, but I have fond memories of them from high school and college parties, where none of us knew how to cook and chips & dip was one of our main food groups.

Turns out? Hidden Valley Ranch Garden Green Onion dip mix is a great way to kick up a muffin recipe.
