For

Method:
Preheat the
grill to a moderate heat. Rinse and dry the salad
leaves, then arrange in four individual bowls. Place
the ingredients for the dressing in a screw-top jar,
shake together well and reserve.
Lay the
bacon rashers on a board, then stretch with the back
of a knife and cut each into four. Roll each piece
up and grill for about 2-3 minutes.
Meanwhile,
slice the goat's cheese into eight and halve each
slice. Top each slice of bread with a piece of
goat's cheese and pop under the grill. Turn over the
bacon and continue cooking with goat's cheese toasts
until the cheese is golden and bubbling.
Arrange the
bacon rolls and toasts on top of the prepared salad
leaves, shake the dressing well and pour a little of
the dressing over each one.
