This muffins are extremely tasty. And they are only 120 calories each. They are perfect for the Fast Day diet. It is a good idea to freeze some of them so you have them ready for those days. They can be eaten for breakfast or lunch. They go perfectly well with a side salad. They are very healthy and you could serve three of them with some vegetables or a big salad on the side, and it would be a perfect meal for any weekday.
