I love all the ingredients in this recipe but it needs more "ummph." This is a moist muffin b/c of the artichokes. I would reocmmend adding garlic in the batter, squeezing as much liquid out of the artichokes. I would also reduce the amount of the artichokes. I think the bacon is a nice added touch but would be cautiuos if you want to add more. I love bacon but I think too much bacon will take away from the muffin. Next time I will try a different cheddar cheese. My cheese was mild. I will definitely make again but with these changes. Photo Tag May 2010
