  1. It looks like the zucchini is shredded finely. Do you need to squeeze it dry or anything or have any issues with excess moisture from the squash?
    I love the flavors of cheese and squash, so I’m sure we’ll thoroughly enjoy these muffins – and it’s great to “sneak” in some more vegetables with the meal. Thanks for sharing!
