Once cooled, fill each bacon bowl with a generous amount of torn butter lettuce and halved cherry tomatoes. (5 minutes)

Finish with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese. Serve immediately or at room temperature for the best flavor and texture. (2 minutes)
For extra flavor, consider adding a drizzle of balsamic glaze or a dollop of creamy avocado ranch dressing before serving.
If you prefer a different cheese, feel free to substitute with your favorite – Monterey Jack, pepper jack, or even crumbled blue cheese would be delicious.
To prevent the bacon from sticking to the foil, lightly spray the foil-covered muffin cups with cooking spray before draping the bacon squares.
You can prepare the bacon bowls ahead of time and store them in an airtight container at room temperature. Fill them just before serving to prevent the lettuce from wilting.
