Slice off the top of each roll; remove center of rolls and cut into small cubes (makes about 3 cups). Place bread cubes on a cookie sheet; toast in oven until golden, about 5 minutes, turning occasionally. Brush inside of rolls with 2 tablespoons of the creamy dressing. Bake until lightly toasted, about 5 minutes; set aside.
To the bowl with the tomatoes add lettuce, bread cubes, bacon, green onions and remaining Caesar dressing; toss until well combined. Spoon into toasted bread shells. Place tops of rolls overfilling; serve immediately.
