Strawberry White Chip Multi-Grain Muffins

I like a good hearty muffin packed with whole grains and healthy goodness. My one problem that I have come across is that I like hearty muffins that aren't heavy. Most bran muffins that I have made are hearty and heavy. These on the other hand, still have that hearty flavor but are light, tender, moist, and seriously addicting.

Next time I will be doubling the batch because 14 muffins only lasted two days at my house!! Yep, it's only me and my husband. . . He happens to find them very addicting as well! :)

Lots of strawberry goodness and just enough white chocolate flavor to make these more of a treat than just a regular snack/breakfast. I am sure that these would be just as delicious without the white chocolate chips!

Oh, and I should mention, they are really easy to make and don't fall apart when eating them in the car! That means you can feed your addiction faster and on the go!!
