This recipe for mini chocolate chip zucchini muffins is one my dad’s favorite gluten free websites. My dad made one change that seemed to work better – either use mini-chocolate chips or chop the larger chips into smaller pieces. These muffins definitely need to be made in a mini-muffin pan and the larger chips overwhelmed the muffins. These are tiny morsels of sheer deliciousness, especially warm out of the oven with the softened chocolate bits melting in your mouth. Enjoy!
I am a big fan of the cook once, eat twice philosophy. I am also learning to be completely gluten free. As a busy, working mom cooking is one of my biggest chores. The kids are going to camp right now and get picked up at 5pm. They are coming home starving after 4 hours of playing in the ocean at Surf and Kayak camp and I can’t get dinner made fast enough, and of course, I didn’t have time to get it started before I picked them up!

I recently moved to Santa Barbara, CA and am enjoying the bounty of fresh fruit and vegetables. This past weekend, my son and I had the opportunity to go pick apricots. Super fun and picked way too many as they were falling off the trees into our bucket. We decided to make a gluten free apricot crumble with them. It was so good, I think we will make another one on July 4th (yes, we picked a lot of apricots.)
