Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread Muffins

Tonight we are getting together with my husbands family because his brother is home for a few days from Colorado! We eating grilled kabobs and I wasn't sure what to bring for a side dish. So of course I drew some inspiration from...Pinterest! I made these Jalapeno Cheddar Cornbread Muffins this morning and will be making some Spinach Parmesan Orzo...yum. It will be hard to not eat all of this before dinner...

Yummy muffins!
