Healthy Breakfast Muffins

I am always on the hunt for a breakfast food that will keep me full for long time.  I came across this recipe for Healthy Breakfast Muffins and thought I would give them a try.  They actually came out tasty (I was skeptical with the flax seed) and kept me pretty full!  They were also a quick option for our early mornings which is very helpful.
