Berry and Granola Muffins

Two of my good friends recently moved out into their own apartment. Being the supportive friend that I am, I decided to help them out by cooking an healthy breakfast alternative for the nachos and salsa that seem to be the only thing on their diet these days. I found the basic recipe for these in Everyday Food Magazine but changed the majority of ingredients to make them meet my friends' demands.
