My kids and I love muffins and I am always trying to come up with new flavors to try for fun! I like to make my muffins whole-grain, low in sugar, high in fiber and like them having some protein if possible. That way, when the kids want to eat 2-3 of them, I don't have to worry that they are having a giant sugar bomb of a snack. I came up with these berry peach muffins that are super delicious, easy to make and nutritious as well! I got my ingredients from Meijer and am sharing information on their Free Prescription Drug Program.

For these berry peach muffins, I used frozen fruit but feel free to use fresh if that is what you have on hand. I used a mix of peaches, blackberries and blueberries. Feel free to switch up the kinds of fruit that you use. Just stick to the 2 cup amount of fruit and you should be fine. I used 100% white whole-wheat flour as I do in most of my recipes for extra nutrients and fiber. I lowered the sugar compared to typical muffins to make a healthy breakfast or snack for the kids and I.

I made these muffins before baby #3 being born, doubled the batch and froze a bunch of them for easy snacks when I am feeding baby. They freeze well and are great to make a huge batch of and freeze for a later date.

Meijer Free Prescription Drug Program

I got all of the ingredients for these Berry Peach Muffins at Meijer. Meijer is known for their delicious fresh produce and they also have excellent frozen fruit which I used in this recipes. I also like their workout clothes, kid's shoes, holiday decor and more. Along with great food ingredients, Meijer has an awesome program for free prescriptions that I wanted to share. It is called the Free Prescription Drug program and since 2006, they have given out 50 MILLION prescriptions. This has saved customers more than $650 million.

I have used this Free Prescription Drug Program before for an antibiotic and was able to get my prescription for free compared to the prices at other pharmacies. The focus on the Free Prescription Drug Program is lowering healthcare costs on antibiotics for children. Other medications are available as well- I know that prenatal vitamins are one of the free options available. This program is available to all customers no matter what insurance that they have or the co-pay. What an amazing program!
