Mini muffins make a great snack for young children on the go or, as a lightweight snack for teenagers before sport. They’re also great to pass around as a quick bite with drinks or at family gatherings. Savoury muffins are also a great lunch box option – healthy and nutritious, they will fill hungry tummies without filling up on sugar as well.

- 220g can HEINZ BEANZ in Tomato Sauce

Method:
- Heat oil in a small non-stick pan, add the spring onion, bacon and capsicum and cook for 2 minutes, or until the vegetables have softened. Remove from heat, drain on absorbent paper.
