1. Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Put the ciabatta and bacon onto a baking tray, sprinkle with the olive oil, then season. Bake for 15 mins, turning halfway through, until the bread is golden and crisp and bacon cooked through. Put the eggs into a pan of cold water, bring to the boil, timing for 6 mins from boiling. Add the beans with 3 mins to go. Drain, then peel and quarter the eggs.
2. Tear the lettuce into a big bowl, then add the spring onions, beans and ciabatta croûtons. Mix the dressing ingredients together, season, then toss with the salad. Top with the eggs and bacon, then serve.

  Great recipe, and not too heavy. The only problem is you want more than one bowl!!

  Excellent! Really delicous but we did eat the amount for 4 between 2 of us but it was all so healthy and nutritious I did not feel remotely guilty.

  Really great bowl! It is a good size for lunch, but for dinner I recommend two eggs per serving and more beans. Stephen <a href="http://www.foodala.com>Foodala</a>

  As with the other suggestions, the portions are not really enough for a main meal, but it can easily be bulked out with more salad ingredients.

  What a fantastic salad - I didn't have any salad onions so substituted thinly-sliced red onion instead. Gorgeous! We too ate the whole lot between 2......
