Guest Post: Blueberry Chia Muffins

Hi there!  I'm Nicole from Another One Bites The Crust.  On my blog, I post a lot of delicious vegan treats!  I thought the readers of Embracing Balance might be interested in a recipe I use for Blueberry Chia Muffins. 

Chia seeds are high in protein and fibre, and totally delicious.  They are a very nice addition to the already tasty blueberry muffins.  Please enjoy!  Let me know how you like the recipe if you give it a try :)
