Hulk’s Sweet Muffins with Zucchini

Hulk’s sweet muffins with zucchini. Since zucchinis are growing abundantly in the garden, I thought of making muffins out of them, light and green, that even kids enjoy. They are Hulk’s muffins, an extra strategy to consume vegetables, as kids do not love this vegetable unless disguised, they avoid it by isolating all the pieces to the edge of the plate. This is also why zucchinis for breakfast are born! And they are happy because even the mighty character feeds on green sweets.

A healthy breakfast, zucchinis, yogurt, and eggs together have found a way to become a delicious treat.
