[Not my usual use of this icon, but it seemed ironically appropriate!]

Looking for recipes for savory breakfast muffins. However...I'm hoping for a recipe you've tried and liked (or liked a variant on) that meets the following criteria:

1. Must be nut-free. It's okay if you had it with nuts as long as they are optional, but no almond flour required recipes, please!

2. Ideally, it will either be dairy-free or have little dairy besides milk and a small amount of butter. This one is highly negotiable, though, and I realize cheese is used in a lot of these.

3. Shouldn't require a food processor or blender. (Or six arms, or six hours of prep time per muffin....)

4. Added bonuses that are not strictly required:
* Low carb (avoiding white flour and high-carb substitutes)
* Veggie content
* Not too much total salt (this does include meat if used)
* Easy / quick to prepare would be a bonus, however I'm willing to spend time as long as I get enough muffins in return to freeze and enjoy later. :)

Google is turning up some possibilities, I'm just hoping someone I know can recommend a recipe or recipes they've used. :) Internet recipes: kind of hit or miss, actually.

I don't have an actual recipe but I do have a suggestion. There's a company called Cravings Place that makes mixes for various kinds of baked goodies, including muffins. Their mixes are gluten, nut, and dairy free, and usually have suggestions right on the package for various flavorings. They're also easy to make, often just stir in margarine and water for the basic mix. Some mixes are presweetened and some aren't; the latter would be good for savory breakfast muffins. The "natural foods" section at Fred Meyer has most of the Cravings Place line; so does Whole Foods, and possibly even Wild Oats.

I hope that helps; if you do decide to try it, I'd love to know how it goes!
