With work, kids, and school, it is quite difficult to have a sit down breakfast. And if you are anything like me, I LOVE to get in any extra minutes of zzzzz. A quick, tasty, and filling breakfast is at the top of my priority list on a rushed morning.

Enter my ‘Skinny Cajun Breakfast Muffins!’ Many of these muffin recipes are floating around pinterest and Facebook, and of course, I had to add a bit of a Cajun twist!

Quick tip – double the batch. Freeze the leftovers in individual Ziploc bags and pop in the microwave on mornings you have to run out the door.
