Sweet and Savory Medjool Date, Bacon, and Brie Tarts

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 package frozen mini fillo shells

  15 (I use Athens brand)
• 3 slices bacon
• 3 ounces brie cheese

  cut evenly into 15 small pieces
• 4 Natural Delights Medjool Dates

  pitted and chopped into ¼-inch pieces
• 1 ounce blue cheese

  crumbled (¼ cup)
• 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh basil

Instructions

• 1 Preheat the oven to 350°F. Remove the mini fillo shells from the freezer and
  allow to thaw for 10 minutes before baking (but not longer than 10 minutes).
  Arrange them on a large, rimmed baking sheet in an even, single layer.
• 2 In a large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crisp, about 6
  minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
• 3 Divide the brie, chopped dates, and blue cheese evenly among the 15 mini fillo
  shells. Crumble the bacon and divide among the shells. Bake the filled fillo
  shells until the brie is melted and the fillo pastry is crisp and flaky, 5 to 7
  minutes. Sprinkle with chopped basil and serve immediately.
