Muffin Mixes in a Bag
Gifts from the Kitchen
One of my favorite quick and easy gifts to give is a
cooking mix that is presented in a bag. Below you will
find three of my favorite muffin mixes that are sure to
please just about anyone on your gift list. I usually
prepare the mix as described, and then place it in a
plastic zipper syle bag. Once the mix is in the bag, you
can just tie the baggie with a pretty bow, or you can do
a little more like make a fabric bag to cover the plastic
bag. These mixes would also be fantastic placed in one
of the newer disposible food storage containers (such as
GladWare), decorated with ribbon and bows. No matter
how you dress up this gift, it will be sure to make someone
very happy!
