Pat's Orange Pecan Muffins
"I started with a recipe from Lennie #14325, but made SO many changes I thought I should post new. Trying to make healthy substitutions AND use what I had on hand. Delicious and refreshing and amazingly easy. (I actually got 13 muffins out of this the first time I made them.)"

cooking is my passion, but not my profession
I love to serve other people and when something I make pleases others - well, it makes my day
I am a public school teacher (high school) and cooking is my stress reliever at the end of the day - I am sure my husband is happy about that!! :)
