Tomato Puff Pastry Bites with Bacon Basil Gremolata

Ingredients

Gremolata

• 1/2 cup finely chopped basil or parsley 

• 1 Tbsp lemon zest 

• 1 Tbsp grated raw garlic, I like to use a microplane grater 

• 1/4 cup olive oil 

• 1/2 cup finely chopped, crispy bacon 

• If you want to add a little extra kick to your Gremolata, chop up a few anchovy fillets and/or a couple of tablespoons of capers and throw those in there as well! 

For the Puff Pastry Bites

• 1 package store bought puff pastry, usually comes with two sheets. 

• 3 ripe Tomatoes - Marsalato is best, Heirloom will also work 

• 1 egg, whisked thoroughly
