Vegan Spinach Quinoa Muffins

While I'm usually very good about getting my daily amount of fruit, I'm not the best with always remembering to eat my veggies. Seriously on a diet analysis I had to do for school, I had over 130% of my daily requirement for fruit and I didn't even reach full requirements in the veggie department. 

C'mon Care, GET IT TOGETHER. 

But I have found a recipe so I can start my day with veggies and even get some veggies in for dessert or a snack. Check out these spinach quinoa muffins. Found these little guys on Life Currents, found here: http://lifecurrents.dw2.net/spinach-quinoa-muffins/
