Salmon and Cream Cheese Bagel recipe
A salmon and cream cheese bagel is a classic and delicious way to start off the morning, or to liven up a Sunday brunch. Dense chewy bagels are smeared with a thick layer of cream cheese and then topped with slices of smoked salmon, cucumber, onion, and capers. The saltiness and smokiness of the salmon is an excellent contrast to the smooth, mild cream cheese.
Serve these up at your next brunch for a filling and delicious meal!
Ingredients:
1 six-ounce plain bagel.
3 thin rings of red onion.
3 ounces of thinly sliced smoked salmon.
