Beet Rosemary Muffins
We’re not big Valentine’s Day people in our household. One of the first times my husband and I ever really hung out was at an anti-Valentine’s gathering. But I’m a sucker for special meals on special days… so since I am on a big beet kick right now I couldn’t let the holiday go by without a red-themed recipe and this one is a keeper!
These muffins are super simple to make (especially if you cheat and buy the already cooked beets like I did)! It is pretty much a dump, mix, and spoon out muffin mix. They are sweet enough to be a tasty breakfast or a healthy snack for the big day.
So whip these up this weekend for a nice little surprise for your family, your co-workers, or anyone else who could use a little extra love!
