Quinoa Raisin Muffin

I know sometimes it gets really hard to eat breakfast, or just a quick snack. That's why this recipe ROCKS! You can make it on the weekend, leave some out and freeze the rest. That's what I do, and when I'm in the run and have no time to prep anything, I just take one of these with me! Very tasty! Got this recipe from kitchen diva, DaniSpies. (her picture turned out much better)
