Description
This is, without a doubt, the best way to start your day.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 everything bagel (or your favourite savoury bagel), split in half
- 3-4 tablespoons whipped cream cheese
- 2 thick slices of fresh tomato
- 6-8 fresh basil leaves
Instructions
- Split the bagel in half and toast until golden and crisp.
- Spread a generous layer of whipped cream cheese on both cut sides of the toasted bagel.
- Lay the tomato slices on the bottom half of the bagel, then top with the fresh basil leaves.
- Close the sandwich with the top half of the bagel and serve immediately.
Notes
Use the freshest, ripest tomatoes you can find — this is a simple sandwich, so the quality of each ingredient really comes through. An everything bagel works beautifully, but any savoury bagel you enjoy will do.
