A tin is filled with freshly baked kale, egg and heirloom tomato breakfast muffins.

We all lead busy lives, and that means we don’t always have the time (or the energy or inspiration) to make ourselves a healthy, filling meal in the morning.

If you find yourself running out the door every day, try our kale, egg and heirloom tomato breakfast muffins. They’re filled with all of your favourite breakfast staples, and are a conveniently portable option for anyone who’s slept through an alarm or lost track of time. You can bake a batch of the muffins and store them in an air-tight container in the fridge or freezer so you’ve always got something healthy to grab when you’re in a hurry. If you’re looking for a quick lunch, simply grab a muffin and serve alongside a leafy salad.
