Last week, I randomly decided to make this muffins and they turned out better than I had expected. I literally woke up, looked inside the fridge and used whatever I had to make them. This recipe can easily have more or less ingredients. For example, if you are an F-Factor follower, use pulverized GGs instead of almond flour, or if you like more veggies add some in. I posted the recipe to my Insta story and the amount of feedback has been unbelievable. I am so happy that you guys are liking my recipes and nothing makes me happier to see your creations. Enjoy this one and Happy Holidays! xx

Is there a non-dairy substitute for the Greek Yogurt?
Hi Heather,
you can skip the yogurt part! They taste just as good without it.
Are riced & grated cauliflower the same?
Yes, you can either grate it, or pulse in a food processor until it becomes rice like consistency.
If using frozen cauliflower ,do you have to thaw and squeeze out the excess liquid first?
You can try, I haven’t tried it with frozen cauliflower.
