Smoked salmon bagel

It’s kind of like bagel and lox, only different. Smoked salmon bagel: A summary. Start with an everything bagel, top it with herbed cream cheese, smoked salmon, avocado, and egg. And like magic, you’ve impressed the world.

There’s a lot going on with these bagels. I’m a big smoked salmon fan and they were so filling, I could only eat one (as in 1/2 a bagel, unheard of for someone like me). Feel free to cook your egg however you see fit. I encourage somewhere in the soft-to-hard boiled range, but if you have something else in mind give it a shot!

The nice thing about these bagels is they are so flexible! Not literally, although I do imagine bagels being slightly more flexible than your average baked goods. What I mean is you can adjust the recipe however you see fit. This would also make a great breakfast platter so people can create their own. If you do that, don’t use the word “deconstructed.” You’ll lose the respect of many (I’ve seen Cutthroat Kitchen!)
