Ingredients

  • 1 Gluten Free Bagel (Trader Joe's) halved vertically and toasted to perfection
  • 2-3 slices of lox
  • 2 tablespoons cream cheese more or less to taste
  • 1-2 thin slices of cheese I prefer thinly sliced Swiss
  • 2-3 tomato slices cut thin
  • 1 slice onion red or white, sliced thin
  • 1 small cucumber peeled and sliced
  • 2-3 slices pepper your favorite color

Instructions

  • Toast bagel halves.
  • Let cool before applying cream cheese to one or both bagel halves (otherwise the cream cheese will melt and slide off).
  • Add the lox, cheese, tomato and onion slices and cover with other 1/2 of bagel.
  • Serve with cucs and peppers.

Notes

Add capers to amp up your bagel.
Butter, honey mustard or flavored cream cheese can be substituted for the plain cream cheese.
Instead of gluten free bagels this sandwich would also be delicious on toasted gluten free bread or rice cakes.
If you don't follow a gluten free diet, indulge and substitute your favorite bagel.
