Check these out, too...

The perfect fall treat and a great thing to serve up at a Halloween bash, this easy-to-make recipe is a favorite. Store-bought pumpkin (filling sold in a can that's available at supermarkets) is the secret to this recipe. These muffins are simple, sweet and still good for ya.

What You'll Need:

1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour 
1 cup granulated sugar 
1 tbsp pumpkin pie spice 
1 tsp baking soda 
1/4 tsp baking powder 
1/4 tsp salt 
2 large eggs 
1 cup plain pumpkin (half of a 1 lb. can) 
1/2 cup (1 stick) melted butter 
1 cup (6 ounces) chocolate chips

What You'll Do:

1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Grease muffin cups, or use foil or paper baking cups.
3. Thoroughly mix flower, sugar, pie spice, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl .
4. Break eggs into another bowl .
5. Add pumpkin and butter to eggs and mix until well blended.
6. Stir in chocolate chips.
7. Pour over dry ingredients and fold in with a rubber spatula just until dry ingredients are moistened .
8. Scoop batter evenly into muffin cups.
9. Bake 20-25 minutes or until muffins are puffed and springy to the touch in the center .
10. Turn out on a rack to cool.
11. Wrap leftovers in a plastic zip bag and keep for 1 to 2 days.

(makes 12 regular or 48 mini muffins)

Hey babe, if you're allowed to use the stove maybe you can make a grilled cheese and heat up some tomato soup. That's one of my faves!

MOD i really really love animals and feel guilty whenever i eat meat. I want to stop but i want to have a healthy diet! Should i stop?

Try reducing meat from your diet and only eating it in moderation. You can get protein from other sources and there are lots of vegetarians out there who are healthy! Best, Miliana
