Great for breakfast and snacks. Maybe even a healthy dessert. This muffin recipe includes oat bran for fiber and protein, berries for anti-oxidant and Vitamin C, and wheat germ for more vitamins and other nutrients.

In a large bowl, mix flour, sugar, oat bran, cooking oats, wheat germ, baking powder, baking soda, salt, blueberries, and raspberries.

Perhaps there's a way to mix in a batch of quinoa in this muffin for an extra dose of healthy protein.
