My mother in law introduced me to the combination of blueberries and rhubarb when she made a blueberry-rhubarb pie. This blueberry rhubarb muffin recipe is moist and tasty, and is a nice way to switch up your breakfast or afternoon snack (muffins were gobbled up by my 2 children). This recipe is adapted from Leslie Beck's Strawberry Rhubarb Muffin recipe.
