  • 2   eggs
  • 1/2 cup (125 mL) half and half
  • 1/8 tsp (.5 mL) salt

  • 12   grape tomatoes
  •  Coarsely ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Unroll one pie crust onto lightly floured surface. Spacing closely together, cut 12 disks from crust using outer tube of Measure-All® Cup (nine around outside edge and three in center). Press disks into wells of a Mini-Muffin Pan using Mini-Tart Shaper, ruffling edges. Repeat with remaining crust.
  2. Whisk eggs, half and half and salt in Classic Batter Bowl using Stainless Whisk; pour into Measure-All® Cup. Set egg mixture aside and wipe out batter bowl with paper towels.
  3. Finely chop bacon and bell pepper with Food Chopper. Press out excess moisture from bell pepper using paper towels. Finely chop chives using Utility Knife. Grate cheese using Ultimate Mandoline. Combine bacon, bell pepper, cheese and chives in batter bowl; mix well using Small Mix 'N Scraper®.
  4. Pour egg mixture evenly into tart shells; sprinkle with cheese mixture. Cut tomatoes in half crosswise. Press one tomato half, cut side up, into center of each tartlet. Sprinkle with black pepper. Bake 14-16 minutes or until egg mixture is set and crusts are golden brown. Remove tartlets to serving platter and sprinkle with additional chopped chives, if desired.
