Strawberry Blueberry Muffins

Submitted by internetnut

"Strawberry muffins with bursts of Blueberries. I found this recipe in Wegmans Nature's Marketplace magazine. My family liked this recipe. When I made these muffins I used Splenda in place of the sugar with no problems. I also used frozen Strawberries and Blueberries. The Strawberries I thawed but the Blueberries I left frozen to help prevent them from getting mushy."
