NOTES : The following muffin recipe can help to meet your daily fruit and

vegetable requirements, as well as supplying beta-carotene, an important

nutrient in the fight against cancer. These muffins freeze well for about a

month. I like to wrap the cooled muffins individually in plastic wrap, and place

them in a reclosable bag in the freezer. Thawing takes only an hour or two at

room temperature, or virtually no time at all in the microwave. -- -- Jan
