Strawberry Chocolate Chip Muffins


Yesterday, I was all set to make Strawberry Muffins, and then this happened...


Oh, hello chocolate chips!  Listen, I could blame being almost 34 weeks pregnant all day long, but the truth is, I would add chocolate chips to almost anything, pregnant or not.  You guys know that.  You know me.  You get me.  You read my blog, even though I have a chocolate problem.  I love you.

While Etta and I were in MN, the boys hit up an eastern Long Island farmers market and got 2 pints of delicious, sweet, juicy strawberries.  We've been munching on them daily, but I wanted to make something with the majority of them so I turned to an eastern Long Islander, Ina, and her Strawberry Muffin recipe.  Makes sense, right?  They were wonderful, and I only made a few alterations.  Adding 1 cup of mini chocolate chips, of course, and omitting the cinnamon (I was out) and adding the zest of 1 lemon instead.  Then I sent all of them to work with Carson because otherwise they would all end up in my gigantic belly.
