Number Of Ingredients 12

7 slices bacon
28 fancy toothpicks
28 cherry tomatoes
3 leaves romaine lettuce, cut into 28 (1 1/2-inch) pieces
1/2 cup Original Bisquick® mix
1 lb ground beef
1 egg
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 oz Cheddar cheese, cut into 1/4-inch cubes (about 1/2 cup)

Steps:

In 10-inch nonstick skillet, cook bacon over medium heat, turning often, until browned but not overly crisp. Drain on paper towels. Discard all but 1 tablespoon drippings. Cut each bacon slice into 4 pieces.
On each toothpick, thread 1 tomato half, 1 bacon piece and 1 lettuce piece; set aside.
In large bowl, mix remaining ingredients except cheese. Fold in cheese. Shape tablespoonfuls of mixture into meatballs; flatten slightly to resemble hamburgers.
In same skillet, heat bacon drippings over medium-high heat. Cook burgers in drippings 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until meat is no longer pink. Insert 1 toothpick in each burger; serve immediately.
