You will love this little (but very filling) BLT tarts with goat cheese! Surprise your guests and family with quick and easy appetizer.
I created this recipe thinking of a BLT sandwich...easy and delicious, simple but so satisfying.
Puff pastry can be easily found in your grocery store, in frozen section( if you don't mind making your own its great, but i prefer to buy a premade dough- time saver).
Cook your bacon until its crispy.
Cut tomatoes very thin.

Use mozzarella cheese (it can be sliced, shredded or whole...)
I personally love arugula much more then any other herb so i used it instead of traditional BLT lettuce
Goat cheese is not very important here but it adds a nice freshness to the bite

This is a perfect little party appetizer! I can't get enough tomatoes this time of year. They taste like sunshine!

Such a fantastic idea for lunch or appetizers. Growing up, my dad's favorite sammy was a BLT so they were a regular fixture in our house. This is a way more elegant version of that.
What a nice, beautiful and simple bite your did there! Love the puff pastry crunchy base, and the fresh toppings! YUM!
These are gorgeous tarts and I love how you use puff pastry as the dough. It is quick and easy to use!
This is the kind of appetizer that I can make a meal out of. Perfect as a side along a salad. Pour me a glass of wine and call this dinner.
What a great appetizer and I agree with you about the arugula, perfect for recipes like this. Perfect for when I host book club.
What a great idea, I love a BLT ! Your tarts look delicious and I like how you've used peppery rocket instead of lettuce, I really have to try these.
