Let’s face it — we’re all time-starved these days.
Good thing I have some quick meal and snack ideas to share with you… all week-long! That’s right. You all loved this post so much that each day this week, I’ll post a quick idea to help you whip up a yummy, healthy option in no time.
Veggie-loaded Bagel
When Mike and I were dating, we frequented bagel shops on the weekend. Our favorite combination sounds simple, but surprisingly almost every time we ordered it, the shop was out of at least one ingredient (usually the sprouts … I know, go figure). Sometimes we had to hit up the grocery store to finish off our favorite creation. It was always worth it.
Try this bagel for breakfast or lunch. It’s filling and mighty tasty. Plus it’s packed with lots of good-for-you veggies.
Quick steps:
- Pick your favorite bagel. I prefer multigrain or whole wheat, toasted.
- Spread with low-fat veggie cream cheese. I like to a liberal helping.
- Top with sliced tomato and cucumber. Thin slices work best.
- Finish with alfalfa sprouts and season with pepper. The sprouts are a must, in my mind.
Question: What’s your favorite bagel combination?
