Speedy Cheese & Chives Muffins

in Foodies Bee Hive3 years ago (edited)

Getting that phone call from friends who say they're popping over now that Covid restrictions are easing up, reminds me of the days when we were let out of school early for whatever reason; we're THAT hungry for real face to face social contact; hearing a voice over the phone just ain't the same!

I'm still reluctant however to run to the shops just to pick up something to enjoy with our coffee so will share with you a trusted Cheese & Chives Muffin recipe that requires very basic pantry staples and can literally be thrown together in no time, but is absolutely yum and perfect for morning coffee!

If you don't have Chives or Spring Onions, just leave it out; add onion salt if you have but not necessary, plain Cheese Muffins is just as good!

I have Spring Onions growing in my little herb garden that's looking a tad straggly, but I managed to find a couple of fair sized Spring Onions.

Chop them up quickly - of course after washing off all the grit and sand; don't need that in our muffins now do we ;)

Seconds anyone? These are great for morning coffee or even for a light breakfast.

What I wouldn't give to pop one of those in my mouth. I have always loved savory muffins, biscuits. Chives are such a gift. You have them in the garden so wonderful.

All the best from Canada!

The problem is I use them faster than they grow so end up having to buy if I need more than just a handful;) You could easily make a nice vegan version...that's if your oven is fixed yet 😒
Sure you're looking forward to warmer weather over there! Nice seeing you my friend 💕

Those look and sound so yummy !

They were good thank you!

Provocative, for a tasty snack and even for breakfast

Very tempting indeed, thanks for popping in!
