More and more fruits are in season, and with summer just around the corner we’ve got a lot of goodies to look forward to. But right now, we’ll focus on what’s available, notably rhubarb and strawberries. For a quick, easy fix of both, give these easy Rhubarb-Strawberry Muffins a try – they’re light, moist, and low in fat.

Rhubarb-Strawberry Muffins
2 cups whole wheat flour
1 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
¼ tsp sea salt
1 cup diced rhubarb
½ cup chopped strawberries
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup skim milk
1 heaping tbsp fat free vanilla yogurt
2 large egg whites
2 tbsp grapeseed oil
1 tsp vanilla extract

Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Combine dry ingredients in one bowl, the rhubarb, strawberries, and sugar in another, and the remaining ingredients in a third bowl. Stir the ingredients in the third bowl well with a whisk, then mix into dry ingredients, just until combined, being careful not to over mix. Fold in the rhubarb mixture, pour into a greased or paper lined 12 cup muffin tin, and cook for about 20 minutes - until golden brown.
