With all four of us under the weather (understatement of the year alert) for the past couple of weeks, I have only left the house for mandatory reasons, so as not to expose others to my contagious children. Tonight it's taken it's toll on me. So what's a girl to do when she's feeling totally stir crazy, but can't leave because Strep Throat Princess and Pink Eye Sinus Face are all sleeping? Well stir of course... Stir up some delish little pumpkin chocolate chip muffins! mmmmm....
And these little gems are pretty healthy, with no oil (except to grease the pan, or you can use paper liners), and only egg whites. Not only is
pumpkin loaded with vitamin A and antioxidant carotenoids, particularly alpha and beta-carotenes, it’s a good source of vitamins C, K, and E, and lots of minerals, including magnesium, potassium, and iron.
Riley asked if I would make these for his birthday! YES! But just don't tell you're friends that they're good for you!

Where do you get all of your recipes?
I got this recipe in my inbox, but usually get my recipes from allrecipes.com, then adapt them to what I like... or occasionally epicurious.com. Happy recipe hunting :o).
Sounds so yummy! Hope the kids and you feel better soon.
I just love the picture of Riley :)
Random question, but have you ever considered freelancing as a wedding cake maker person? Because you would so rock at it.
