       Thank-you Caitlin, for bringing your 100 calorie muffins to this planet. Let me just say that I LOVE muffins. Blueberry muffins are the best ever. Usually, blueberry muffins are around 256 calories - 660 calories (depending on the size) with an incredible fat content. But as I was nosing around on the recipe browser of caloriecount.about.com, I discovered Caitlin's masterpieces... 98 calories per muffin, with only 10 being from fat. What a perfect addition to a healthy breakfast.
