Ingredients for Bacon And Tomato Cups

  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • Roma Tomato
  • 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese
  • 2 tablespoons sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Dried Basil
  • Refrigerated Biscuits

How to Make Bacon And Tomato Cups

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray or butter.
  3. In a skillet over medium heat, cook bacon and onion until bacon is crispy and onion is softened. Approximately 5-7 minutes.
  4. Remove bacon and onion mixture from skillet. Drain on paper towels to remove excess grease.
  5. Once cooled, combine cooked bacon and onion with diced tomato, shredded Swiss cheese, sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and basil in a medium bowl. Mix well.
  6. Separate the Pillsbury Grands! biscuits. Gently flatten each biscuit with your hand or a rolling pin.
  7. Press each flattened biscuit into the cups of the prepared muffin tin, ensuring the dough reaches the top of each cup.
  8. Spoon a portion of the bacon and tomato mixture into the center of each biscuit cup.
  9. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is heated through.
  10. Let cool slightly before carefully removing from the muffin tin. Serve warm and enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
