Savoury muffins make a good lunchbox filler or a meal on the go and are a healthy fast food, especially if you pack them with plenty of veggies and make them with wholemeal flour. Use tasty cheese to give the muffins plenty of flavour, or substitute feta or parmesan for a different twist. Zucchinis have a lot of moisture in them so add the milk a bit at a time, you may not need the whole amount.
