    When I’m wanting to mix things up a little with the boys school and kindy lunchboxes, I will make a batch of these Ham and Cheese Muffins to pop in them to give them an alternative to their usual sandwiches.  These cute little muffins are quick to whip up, are filling, and best of all – freezer friendly!

    Why you will love this recipe:

    • Budget friendly – you will likely have most of the ingredients you need to make this recipe sitting in your fridge and pantry.
    • Versatile – you can use any type of ham for this recipe and these muffins are also a great way to use up any leftover ham at the end of the week.
    • Freezer friendly – pop these muffins into the freezer for an easy snack.

    Because a batch of these muffins goes a long way, this is a great recipe to make as part of your weekend (or weekday!) meal prep and I’ve had no problems popping a frozen muffin into the kids lunchboxes and it then being ready for them to eat by morning tea time.
