SUN-DRIED TOMATO AND COTTAGE CHEESE MUFFINS (VEGETARIAN)
From *Vegetarian Supercook* by Rose Elliot ("an accomplished UK-based cookbook author who focuses on vegetarian recipes") comes this unique & tempting muffin recipe. The intro contained a wealth of info: "Not only does their cottage cheese & grd almond base make them a smarter way to start the day, but the combo of tomatoes, cheese & basil baking in a hot oven makes your kitchen smell like a pizzeria. The texture here isn't attempting to emulate traditional flour-based muffins. These are much moister, less bready & more quiche-like." *Enjoy* !

COTTAGE CHEESE ONION MUFFINS
This recipe comes from The Original Vidalia Onion Cookbook that I received years ago with a gift box of Vidalia onions. While I haven't made these muffins yet, I love muffins and this sounds like something that would be great with a steak dinner. I'm posting it here since I always forget to dig through my cookbooks now that there are so many great recipes online.
