In hopes of keeping the fresh, fruity summer flavors around as we head into the autumn season, I made vegan, gluten free, and grain free protein bites that taste just like a Lemon Poppy Seed muffin, but are much better for you! They only take about 10 minutes to make, and contain a well-rounded blend of healthy plant-based protein, fats and carbs from MRM Veggie Meal to keep you satisfied. Skip the sugar crash from the store bought muffin and go for a few of these, instead!
