Bagels are a big hit in America. Whether for breakfast, brunch or lunch they offer a sure fire energy boost and delicious meal. Perfect for on the go, they can be made up in 5 minutes and chilled up to a day in advance, making them great for packed lunches. The most popular and traditional fillings are cream cheese and smoked salmon. We’ve used this classic combo and given it a NYC twist with peppery red onion, tomatoes and fresh dill. For fewer calories, swap the cream cheese for a low fat version and try wholemeal bagels instead of white.
