What Goes Good On A Toasted Bagel?
Contents
1 – Bacon, Brie Cheese, Sautéed Mushrooms and Scrambled Eggs
The great thing (and there are many) about this combo is the fact you can eat it open or as a sandwich. The combination of bacon, Brie and sautéed mushrooms would be good enough for any sandwich but allied to toasted bagel and mixed in with scrambled eggs makes this our top pick for the sheer awesomeness in flavours. For a nice twist we like to add Mahi hot sauce into the mix as we’ve found it’s one heck of a sauce but you can just as easily use ketchup, mayo or keep it plain and simple.
Ingredients
Toasted bagel of your choice, bacon, brie cheese, sauteed mushrooms, scrambled eggs
2 – Tuna, Mayo and Sweetcorn
Tuna, mayonnaise, sweetcorn is a classic combination for a reason – it tastes delicious. But add a toasted bagel into the mix and suddenly a nice regular sandwich is upgraded to a great one. If you want to jazz things up even further feel free to throw some sliced avocado.
Ingredients
Toasted bagel of your choice, tuna, mayonnaise, sweetcorn, tomatoes and a spread (e.g. butter) of your choice.
3 – Cream Cheese and Smoked Salmon
Cream cheese and bagels go so well they almost need no introduction but if you’ve never tried it, this may be a good starting point. The addition of smoked salmon takes this combination to another level.
Ingredients
Toasted bagel of your choice, soft cream cheese, smoked salmon, ground black pepper
4 – Goats cheese and Smoked Salmon
This is a slight twist to the awesome recipe presented above. In addition to the stuff included in the last recipe here you mix in some goats cheese to your cream cheese to give it an extra layer of depth.
Ingredients
Toasted bagel of your choice, soft cream cheese, goats cheese, smoked salmon, ground black pepper, tomatoes
5 – Tomato, Avocado and Cheddar Cheese
This is a great option for vegetarians or if you’re simply not in the food for any meat or fish. The avocados and tomatoes give it a smooth tasty quality whilst the cheddar cheese brings a welcome kick to the texture. Add black olives for an even bolder taste.
Ingredients
Toasted bagel of your choice, avocado, tomatoes, cheddar cheese, black olives, black pepper
6 – Bacon and Cream Cheese
It had to be done. The simplicity of this combination is only surpassed by the sheer pleasure you derive from the taste. We personally like this even better with a glass of fresh juice (it may be the sweet and salty combination that makes taste so good). This makes a great breakfast bagel.
Ingredients
Toasted bagel of your choice, bacon, soft cream cheese
7 – Ham and Cheese
It’s difficult to talk about the best toasted bagel fillings without including this classic combination – simply because it’s so good. You can make the ham as colourful as you like (we like ours smoky) and feel free to experiment with your cheese selection. You couldn’t go wrong with a nice mature cheddar cheese.
Ingredients
Toasted bagel of your choice, ham, cheese, tomato, lettuce
8 – Simply Toasted
One of the best things about bagels is the fact you can enjoy them in so many different ways. Sometimes all you need is a sliced toasted bagel, your favourite butter and a cup of coffee.
Ingredients
Toasted bagel of your choice, butter/spread of your choice
