Ingredients

Servings

2 slices Ciabatta bread (or similar crusty bread, cut at an angle)
¼ cup Tapenade (as needed to spread on bread slices)
5 slices fresh goat cheese (I used brie; you can use any cheese that will melt, but still hold its shape)
4 slices Bacon (thick cut, grilled or fried, not too crispy, so that it can be formed into shapes)
2 Edible Flowers (optional, to garnish)

Instructions

Toast the bread on both sides, and spread with a little tapenade. Place slices of cheese on top of the tapenade. Grill until the cheese is hot and starting to melt.
Form one rasher of bacon into a rose and the other into a bow (like the pink breast cancer bow, more of a loop), and place on the toast (with a flower, if desired) and serve with salad. Very simple, but most elegant.

Notes

A light lunch or even an appetizer when made smaller with cheese and bacon as the stars.
