These carrot and courgette muffins taste way nicer than they sound and are perfect for freezing for packed lunches.
When I was rooting around in my fridge yesterday morning looking for some sort of lunch inspiration, I found a couple of courgettes that were looking way past their best. I also found a few tired looking carrots so I thought I’d try making some carrot and courgette muffins as a way of using them up rather than putting them in the bin.

I usually freeze these types of fruit/veg muffins for up to a month which makes them perfect for packed lunches and after school snacks and even fussy eater Master Frugal managed to eat one which is an achievement in itself!
