This No Fuss Bacon Tomato and Cheese Cups is such a crazy simple recipes, let me tell you a brief story before we get to it!
Ryder, my youngest son, adores our one-year-old Bassett hound. He really is helpful with her and wants to wake her every morning and feed her. This is great for me because I’m usually rushed from blogging running, making lunches, and cooking breakfast. He’s not real efficient at it so I didn’t think much this morning when he was in her room, aka the laundry room, a long time. When he did finally re-appear, he said, “Mommie, just in case I ever need to sleep there, did you know I fit perfectly on Summer’s bed?” Ahhh, life with boys!
So. About that No Fuss Bacon Tomato and Cheese Cups. This truly is a no fuss recipe. It’s not pretentious, it’s just downright simple and delicious! And the recipe is so easy to remember, you merely need one cup of everything!
I make it often and made it for a recent football party, because bacon and football go together! You know, kind of like football and bourbon goes together! Anywho, we won the game we were expected to lose, so now they’re Good Luck No Fuss Tomato and Cheese Cups! π

I love bacon cups! My friends mom introduced me to them. I use either the flakey biscuit rolls or croissants interested of phyllo. But, I’m going to try it out and see how it tastes. I get the buttermilk biscuits, forgot to mention that.
Everything else is the exact same way ingredients,mini muffin pan, cook time is until the crust is tan in color and bake temp is the same.
Paula says
That sounds yummy. I’ve never had them in biscuit cups. Got to try it
Wendy says
I am attempting to make the cups myself for the first time. having looked at other recipes for making cups, I am quite unclear about whether you filled the ‘raw’ cups and baked everything at once, or if you made/baked the cups and then baked them again with the filling. Guidance?
Paula says
Fill the raw cups then bake
Lynn says
Guess what will be included on this year’s Superbowl snack tray?! Thanks!! π
Paula says
I’m thrilled! I could eat the whole batch, one of my favs!
janet rivard says
Not sure where I’d get the phyllo cups.
Paula says
Most grocery stores carry them. They’re located in the freezer section by the pie crusts.
Samantha Jo says
Mmm. How simple!
For those who aren’t huge fans of swiss, what would be a good substitute? Mozz? Parm? Hmm…
Paula says
I think a muenster or havarti, but I’m sure really any cheese even a mild cheddar would be good.
Sheilah says
gruyere would be great! It’s also great in scalloped potatoes.
