3. Lay leaves of arugala on top of spread side of one toast slice on each plate. top each of the four with a layer of cheese -- 3 or four slices.

4. Lay slices of mango on top of cheese and top with 2 or 3 slices of bacon. Cover each sandwich with its mate. Hold the top of each sandwich securely to keep ingredients from sliding out and cut the sandwiches in half.
