Paleo Strawberry Rhubarb Chia Muffins

As you know, Rob and I are trying to eat better and at the same time, Aubrey has officially gone both gluten and dairy free. It is all going so well and actually, they help each other out. With Aubrey's dietary restrictions, my allergies and Rob's want to cut out carbs, we have been slowly switching our kitchen to a paleo one. We always feel better eating a Paleo lifestyle and now Aubrey is really helping solidify that switch.With that, over the past two years, we have been working on growing our own fruits and vegetables as much as we can. Two summers ago, I planted a rhubarb patch and this year, it was finally big enough to harvest. One of the meals that we struggle with the most as a family is Breakfast. With getting both kids off to school and diving into work, we all seem to be stuck eating a banana each before running out the door. I wanted to make Aubrey something sweet and yummy that tasted like something he would have eaten before. It was the perfect opportunity to use up some of that gorgeous Rhubarb.
