53 mg of phosphorus is too much when trying not to eat any phosphorus at all. I think I'll pass on this receipe.

This recipe was very good. The muffins were moist and tasty. Next time I will substitute using Rice Dream Vanilla(unenriched) to enhance the flavor.

Mom liked them but all she did to help was zest the lemons. I wasn't that impressed.. they turned out really moist for me. I'd rate it as "it's okay" but that's not an option. ;-)

The taste was sweet and I used a little more than a tablespoon of lemon. It was soo good! The batter was a little lumpy and make sure to use real frozen blueberries!
