Some Fun News & Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffin Recipe!

I am sure most of you have heard of the Eighteen25 blog.
The Eighteen25 sisters are known for their super creative printables, crafts & recipes.
I have been reading their blog for years and love the ideas that they post.

They put together a creative team of 4 bloggers and I am so excited to be a part of it!
Ekkk!!! Can you believe it?!?!?

I will be guest posting on their blog a few times in the next couple months.
Today, I am over there sharing my Chocolate Chip Zucchini Muffin Recipe! 
 Check out my post on their blog here!

*******************
 Here is what you need:
  1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 cups white sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/4 cup milk
1 Tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups shredded zucchini
1/2 cup of chocolate chips

Directions:
Use a cheese grater to shred your zucchini to make 2 cups of shredded zucchini
Combine flour, sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl. 
Mix egg, oil, milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in another bowl.
 Stir into dry ingredients until just moistened. Fold in zucchini & chocolate chips.
(You can use either mini chocolate chips or regular chocolate chips)
I am a milk chocolate chip girl, but semi-sweet is fine also!
Using a spoon, fill muffin cups 2/3 full:
  Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes (until toothpick comes out clean)
 *Makes 12 regular sized muffins*
These muffins are perfect for either breakfast, lunch or an afternoon snack. 
I made a double batch of these last week for our family vacation to Lake Tahoe. 
My girls had them as a snack when they were hungry on our road trip and they also ate them at the pool and by the lake. 
They are easy to make & delicious! 
It is also a great way to sneak in some veggies if your kids happen to be picky eaters!
Enjoy!

Hope you enjoy these delicious muffins!
