Fresh Strawberry Muffins

This recipe was really simple and tasted good.  The only thing I would recommend would to add a light glaze on top.  Just powdered sugar and milk.  Oh and I added 2 cups of strawberries instead of 1 1/2.  I made these twice and just substituted the milk for plain yogurt. (added a tad of milk to loosen the batter.) Tasted good both times and Anthony liked them too !  Score:8.5
