MINI TOMATO RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Place chopped bacon in a small nonstick skillet over medium; cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 6 minutes. Drain on paper towels.
• Stir together bacon, mayonnaise, chives, zest, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a small bowl. Spread mayonnaise mixture on 10 bread slices. Layer 5 of the mayonnaise-coated bread slices with red tomato slices; sprinkle with 1/8 teaspoon each of the salt and pepper. Top with remaining 5 mayonnaise-coated bread slices, coated side up; layer with yellow tomato slices, and sprinkle with remaining 1/8 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Top with remaining 5 bread slices.
• Cut each sandwich into 4 pieces, and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Cut pie crust into circles,(you are going to be putting these into muffin tins -- use your best judgement on the size. I use a glass and usually get 7 from each pie crust).
• Place each circle of crust into sprayed muffin tin.
• Dock each crust with fork several times.
• Bake in 400 degree oven for 8 - 10 minutes, until lightly browned.
• Remove pie crust from muffin tin and place on cookie sheet (this helps ensure they don't stick to the tin while cooking the next step).
• Place tomatoes in colander and set in the sink.
• Sprinkle with salt and allow to drain 15 minutes.
• Pat drained tomatoes lightly with paper towels.
• Fill each cup with a tablespoon of tomatoes, a little onion, a little bacon and a pinch of basil.
• Combine the cheeses and mayonnaise together.
• Spread mixture on top of tomatoes mounding it up.
• Bake for 10 to 12 minutes in a 375 degree oven, or until top is slightly browned.
