Sometimes the morning gets away from you, so you need something easy and quick, but also healthier than a handful of cereal. These Blueberry Bangarang Muffins are stuffed with all the right kinds of ingredients to keep you energized through your morning, plus you won’t have to feel guilty for eating two! We like to make them Sunday night to grab-and-go throughout the week. We added chia seeds, but you can get creative and include other little extras like ground flaxseed for even more bang-to-your-rang.
