What can I do with plain vanilla muffins?

Freezing bread in small portions?
I remember someone saying they froze bread in either 2 or 4 slice amounts to save defrosting a whole loaf at once, but I can't remember what they froze this amount in. I have sandwich bags to hand which I could freeze 2 slices in, not particularly economical though, and wouldn't fit 4 in. Any other ideas please?
