100 g fresh spinach, chopped

Preparation
1. Preheat the Oven
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
2. Cook the Spinach
Cook the chopped spinach in a small pan with a little oil or butter for 1–2 minutes until wilted and most of the water has evaporated. Let it cool slightly before adding to the batter.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, plain cheese, and Everything Bacon Seasoning A Spice Affair until smooth and well combined.
4. Add Dry Ingredients
Gently fold in the flour and baking powder until just combined. Then add the lightly cooked spinach and mix gently.
5. Fill Muffin Cups
Spoon the batter into muffin cups, filling each about halfway. Add 1 Kiri cube for every 3 muffins in the centre, then cover lightly with a little more batter.
6. Bake
Bake for 20–25 minutes or until the muffins are golden and a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let them cool slightly before removing from the tin.
7. Pack for Lunchbox
Serve the muffins with carrot sticks and apple wedges for a tasty, balanced lunchbox snack.
