Recipe Notes
You can make the filling mixture a couple of hours before serving, and fill the phyllo cups just before serving to your guests, but keep in mind that the longer the filling sits, more moisture will come out of the tomatoes and you will have to drain the mixture in a sieve before filling the cups.
