Sweet Potato Muffins

Happy Weekend! Thank goodness I can have a weekend with nothing set in stone to do, and no exams to study for at the moment. Today I made sweet potato chocolate chip muffins!! Oh man, are they delicious! I was not sure what to expect when I tried these, but I'm really glad that I did.

These are perfect for getting some vegetables in, and a great way to jumpstart your morning or post workout! The recipe is below!! Macros for mini muffins, per muffin: 11 carbs, 2.7g fat and 3g protein (per mini muffin, will change if made into large muffins)
