Since I began shredding the pounds, I have become keenly aware of not only my calorie intake but also my cholesterol intake.
When I created my Kellogg's Honey Hazelnut Raisin Bran Muffins', back in April, I was not thinking of the sugar nor the cholesterol content in them. Sure, you can say, "Well it's only one egg", and "So, what is a couple of tablespoons of sugar". However, if you are eating these muffins as a part of your reduction breakfast on a regular basis , the cholesterol content of the eggs and the sugar will gradually become higher over time.
So not to bore you with a lot of dietary talk, below is my tasty new Low-Cal, No Cholesterol Kellogg's Honey Raisin Bran Muffins recipe. I guarantee that you will find that it is just as delicious as my first recipe.
