Cook this recipe
- plain bagels-4 count
- cream cheese-8 oz
- English cucumber-1 count
- fresh dill-2 tablespoons
- fresh chives-2 tablespoons
- lemon juice-1 tablespoon
- kosher salt-1/4 teaspoon
- black pepper-1/4 teaspoon
Split the bagels, thinly slice the cucumber, chop the dill, and thinly slice the chives.
Use a stable cutting board and keep fingertips tucked while slicing the cucumber and herbs.
In a medium bowl, stir together softened cream cheese, fresh dill and chives, lemon juice, kosher salt, and black pepper until smooth and evenly mixed.
Toast the bagel halves until lightly crisp and golden at the edges, about 3 to 4 minutes.
Remove bagels carefully from the toaster, as the cut sides can be very hot.
Spread each toasted bagel half with herbed cream cheese, then layer on crisp cucumber slices.
Serve immediately while the bagels are warm and crisp and the cucumber is cool and crunchy.
