I thought these muffins were just okay. They weren't bad, but they weren't anything special either.

I love that these muffins can be made ahead of time. I can make a batch on the weekend and then just reheat them during the week.

These muffins are a great way to get my kids to eat their vegetables. They love the flavor of the beef and cheese, and they don't even realize that they're eating bell peppers.

I'm not a big fan of bell peppers, but I didn't even notice them in these muffins. The flavor of the beef and cheese was so strong that the bell peppers were completely masked.
