Method

Pour the oil, cider vinegar, mustard powder and honey into the bowl of a mini food processor and crumble in half the cheese. Whizz until smooth, and then season to taste.
Tip the salad leaves into a bowl, then scatter over the chopped bacon and break the rest of the cheese into small chunks and add to the dish.
Drizzle over some of the honey and mustard dressing, and serve with the remaining dressing in a jug so you can add more if you like.
