BACON-TOMATO CUPS



BACON-TOMATO CUPS image

Categories     Appetizer     Bake     Cocktail Party     Phyllo/Puff Pastry Dough

Number Of Ingredients 7

7 slices bacon
1 bunch green onions
1 cup loosely packed basil (fresh)
1 tomato, chopped
4 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
1/4 cup mayo (or 1/8 c mayo & 1/8 sour cream)
Phyllo dough cups

Steps:

  • Cook bacon. Preheat oven to 375*. Mix all ingredients together. Fill phyllo cups. Bake 375* 8-10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: This will ensure that your tomato bacon cups are bursting with flavor. Look for tomatoes that are deep red and have no blemishes.
  • Use high-quality bacon: Thick-cut bacon is best for this recipe, as it will hold up well when cooked. Look for bacon that is well-marbled, as this will give it a nice crispy texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the bacon, be sure to give it enough space so that it can cook evenly. If you overcrowd the pan, the bacon will steam instead of fry, and it will not be as crispy.
  • Use a muffin tin: A muffin tin is the perfect way to shape the tomato bacon cups. The cups will help to hold the ingredients together and prevent them from spilling over.
  • Bake the tomato bacon cups until the cheese is melted and bubbly: This will ensure that the cups are cooked through and that the cheese is nice and gooey.

Conclusion:

Tomato bacon cups are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer that is perfect for any occasion. They are sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy snack or appetizer, give tomato bacon cups a try. You won't be disappointed!
