Ingredients

  • 4 slices of bacon
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3 tablespoons BBQ sauce (sweet is best)
  • 20 cherry tomatoes or grape tomatoes, sliced or halved
  • 20 crackers
  • ¼ cup shredded lettuce or julienned basil leaves
  • Fresh ground black pepper if desired

Instructions

  • Cook or bake the bacon until crisp.  Set aside on a paper towel lined plate to drain.  Once cooled, chop into small pieces and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, combine the cream cheese and BBQ sauce and blend until smooth.  
  • When ready to serve, spread the cream cheese mixture on top of each cracker, then garnish with sliced tomatoes, crumbled bacon and shredded lettuce or basil leaves.  Top with fresh ground black pepper and serve immediately.
