Ingredients
- 12 slices hard salami
- 1 avocado, chopped
- ½ cup grape tomatoes, chopped sliced in half
Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 375°F. Spray a muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray and set aside.
-
Cut two slits in the salami slices at the top and bottom. Then take the slices and place in the muffin tin. The cuts will help you form a cup by overlapping at the top.
-
Bake for 10-15 minutes, checking after 10 minutes to see if they are brown and crispy but not burnt. Take out and let cool before adding toppings.
-
While those are baking, chop up the tomatoes and avocado. The when the cups have cooled fill with the toppings and serve.
-
Note the cups will not be crispy if you have leftovers. If you have leftover cups you can crisp them back up in the oven or air fryer for a few minutes but you won't want the tomatoes and avocado to be in them.

More topping ideas or to make more of an appetizer.
- Try chopped fresh herbs like cilantro, basil or parsley to dress them up a bit.
- Try adding crumbled cheeses such as goat cheese, feta or blue cheese. Also fresh mozzarella balls and basil leaves would be delicious.
- A flavorful herb cream cheese would be good too with finely chopped vegetables.
- Go for an antipasto flavor with diced cheeses, artichoke hearts, onion, olives, roasted peppers, fresh basil, etc.
- For Mexican flavors try a dollop of sour cream, cheddar cheese, tomatoes, avocado and green onions.
- Cooked shrimp goes great with these BLT flavors.
