BLT CUPS

These appetizers are easy to make and very addictive. I have converted tomato-haters to lovers of these BLT cups. I love that they can be made ahead of time and then a quick spoonful in a cup to serve. You can never make too many - they will fly in a second. The BLT mix can be made in advance and kept refrigerated. Remove from fridge 1/2 hour before serving. You can use butter instead of olive oil, if desired.

Ingredients

6 slices bacon, cut into 1/2 inch slices
12 small plum (Roma) tomatoes
3 cups coarsely chopped romaine lettuce (6 leaves)
2 tablespoons ranch dressing
2 tablespoons coarsely crushed garlic and butter flavor croutons

Steps:

In 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat, cook bacon 5 to 7 minutes until crisp; drain on paper towels.
With serrated knife, cut each tomato in half crosswise. Using teaspoon, scoop out seeds and pulp from each tomato half, leaving enough tomato for a firm shell. If necessary, cut small slice from bottom so tomato half stands upright.
In medium bowl, combine lettuce and ranch dressing. Using small tongs or fingers, fill tomato shells evenly with lettuce mixture. Sprinkle with bacon and croutons. Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving.

Tips:

For a crispier cup, use day-old bread.
Use a variety of bread to create different flavors and textures. Sourdough, wheat, and rye bread are all great options.
If you don't have a muffin tin, you can use a mini loaf pan or even a regular loaf pan. Just adjust the baking time accordingly.
Get creative with your fillings! You can add cooked bacon, diced tomatoes, shredded cheese, or even a fried egg to your cups.
Serve your BLT cups warm or at room temperature.

BLT cups are a fun and easy snack or appetizer that can be made with a variety of ingredients. They're perfect for parties, potlucks, or a quick lunch or dinner. With a little creativity, you can create BLT cups that are sure to please everyone. Enjoy!
