Pistachio Muffins~Happy St. Patrick's Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day!  I hope you remembered to wear green.  I've already been pinched this morning-ouch!  I made Pistachio Muffins for breakfast while listening to my kids scream as they pinched each other and ran around the house to find something green to wear---fun times.  The pistachio pudding mix in this recipe turns the muffins a pale green.  They may be green, but will they be good?
