Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 375°F. Line large cookie sheet with cooking parchment paper.
  • 2
    Unroll crescent dough into 12x8-inch rectangle. If using crescent rolls, press seams to seal. Cut into 6 rows by 4 rows to make 24 squares. Place dough pieces on cookie sheet, spacing slightly apart. Bake 10 to 13 minutes or until golden brown; cool 10 minutes.
  • 3
    In small bowl, mix cream cheese spread, milk and 1/4 cup of the spinach; beat with spoon until well mixed. Stir in 1/2 cup of the bacon. Spread about 2 teaspoons of the cream cheese mixture on top of each baked crescent square.
  • 4
    Before serving, top with remaining spinach, bacon and tomatoes. Serve immediately, or loosely cover and refrigerate up to 2 hours before serving.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Cook your bacon ahead of time to make these appetizers quick and easy to assemble. Make them up to two hours before serving.
  • tip 2
    Cream cheese spreads come in various flavors. If you’re unable to find garlic and herb, substitute with chive and onion.
  • tip 3
    These tarts are also delicious when the tomatoes are oven-roasted, which get jammy, caramelized and have a depth of flavor. To oven roast: Heat oven to 400°F. In medium bowl, mix 1 pint grape tomatoes, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper; spread onto large rimmed baking sheet lined with foil. Roast tomatoes about 20 minutes, stirring after 10 minutes, until tomatoes burst and skins begin to shrivel. Assemble tarts as directed in method, except top tarts with cooled oven-roasted grape tomatoes, reserving any remaining for another use.
