Notes

  • These bad boys freeze extremely well and make a great work lunch. Pair them with fresh spinach leaves and your week is sorted. 
  • Any milk is fine, I use almond as I always have it in my home and I rarely have cow's milk as I don't drink enough of it to not waste it. 
  • Fresh chives is fine too, I would love to grow them, but I have an unsuccessful track record when it comes to growing herbs which I am working on!). 
  • I use minced garlic for this - you could use a clove, but I am not super skilled at , mincing it up finely, don't want to wash up a food processor and this is meant to be super easy, not spend 5 hrs in the kitchen post cooking washing up. 
  • The technique of pouring the mix into the muffin tin means less spillage and no messy hands. 
  • Top each muffin with one slice of mushroom so when you are looking at them in their frozen state you will know which ones are which (ie if you have 2 batches in there).
