strawberry lemon poppyseed muffins

Sorry for the muffin tease before friends.  I couldn't wait to share these with you.  These muffins are so good I couldn't resist biting into a piping hot one from the oven and burning my mouth.  It was totally worth it.  Then Josh decided that they smelled so good that he grabbed the burning muffin from my hand and ate the rest of it before I even had a chance to blink.  Muffin stealer! 

Every time I type the word "muffin" I think of this youtube video. 
I promise you there is no blood in these muffins.  Though there is a secret ingredient - greek yogurt.  Shhhhh - don't tell!  It makes the muffins super moist and also gives a normal carb-filled breakfast some extra nutrition. 

These muffins will be the perfect addition to your easter brunch this weekend.

either spray your muffin tin, or use liners, either will work
