Servings 1
Calories 458kcal
Ingredients
- 2 ounces Lox or cold smoked salmon
- 1 everything bagel
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 2 teaspoons capers
- 1 teaspoon dill
Instructions
- Slice the bagel in half and toast it (in a toaster or quickly under the broiler).
- Spread a layer or cream cheese over the toasted bagel. Add the lox.
- Sprinkle with capers and chopped dill.
- Top the lox bagel with any other toppings you prefer like: sliced cucumber, tomato, thinly sliced red onion and a squeeze of lemon juice. Serve cold.
Notes
- Lox Bagel Spread (or Lox Schmear) – in a food processor add the cream cheese, lox, capers, dill and a few slices of cucumber and red onion. Blend until smooth. Smear this over a toasted bagel for a commute friendly lox bagel option. 🙂
- I rarely used plain cream cheese in this recipe although you can. I prefer a savory cream cheese like chive and onion.
- If you can’t find capers (or find you fought to buy them) chopped green olives are a tasty substitute IMO.
