INGREDIENTS:
1½ cups all-purpose flour
¼ cup traditional rolled oats
2 teaspoons baking powder

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line muffin tins with paper liners.
2. In a large bowl whisk together the flour, oats, baking powder and baking soda. In a medium bowl, whisk together the applesauce, water, oil, honey and eggs, then stir in the apple and cheese. Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture and stir until just barely blended.

Budgeting
We all know how vet bills add up. Here is an idea:
Decorate a jar with dog images or empty a biscuit box to create a doggy bank. At the end of the day toss all your coins and or singles. Even if the year tally is only $20.00..every bit counts. You may want to mark the jar "Vet Care".
