More Yellow Squash = Savory CHEESE Muffins!

I went back and bought some more Yellow Squash since I loved them so much and decided to be even more creative. I wanted to make something savory that we could have for a light meal with some soup since it's been so cold here lately. So I decided to add some CHEESE and Roasted Red Peppers and make them sorta like Corn Muffins. They turned out PERFECT!

Ingredients: (6 muffins)

½ c all-purpose flour
½ c cornmeal
¾ tsp baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
¼ tsp salt
¼ c vegetable oil
¼ c sour cream
1 large egg
1 c yellow squash, grated
¼ c roasted red peppers, chopped
1 green onion, chopped
1 c Mexican cheese, shredded

Prep:

1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Lightly grease or line 6 muffin cups.

2. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add oil, sour cream and egg, beating at medium-low speed with an electric mixer until combined. Add squash, peppers, onion and cheese, stirring to combine.

3. Spoon into prepared muffin cups. Bake for 12 to 16 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
