Bagels reimagined: Elevate your breakfast with these recipes

Bagels are mainly associated with the United States, where they have become a staple of the New Yorker's daily diet. However, you don't need to book tickets and pack your suitcase because you can make these delicious sandwiches, featuring a characteristic hole, right at home.

Three flavorful versions will satisfy fans of salmon, classic deli meats, and crispy bacon. Add some vegetables and sauces, and you have a breakfast that many restaurants would envy. You can buy the rolls at the store or make them yourself.

This is the perfect recipe for a lazy weekend breakfast or a filling lunch at work. Warm, cold, and indulgent—these bagels fit perfectly into the daily menu. Fresh avocado, delicate ham, and flavorful lamb's lettuce; tender salmon, sweet red onion, and slightly tangy cream cheese; or the classic combination of bacon, egg, and cheddar cheese are simple and tasty proposals that will diversify your breakfast.

Ingredients:

Version 1:

• 1 egg,
• 1 bagel,
• 1.5 oz avocado spread,
• 2 slices of ham,
• 1 handful of lamb's lettuce,
• 2 slices of tomato,

Version 2:

• 1 egg,
• 1 bagel,
• 1.5 oz cream cheese,
• 0.7 oz smoked salmon,
• 0.35 oz red onion,
• half a teaspoon of lemon juice

Version 3:

• 1.5 oz sliced bacon,
• 1 egg,
• 1 bagel,
• 1 teaspoon ketchup,
• 1 leaf of lettuce,
• 2 slices of cheddar cheese

Preparation method:

Bagel with Ham: Heat fat in a pan. Pour in the egg white and place half a bagel on it. Put the other half next to it, placing the yolk in the hole. Remove from the pan when the white sets.

Season the white base with salt and pepper and spread with mashed avocado. Add ham, arugula, and tomato, then top with the bun with the yolk.

Bagel with Salmon: Spread cream cheese on the bottom of the bagel. Add arugula, smoked salmon, and drizzle with lemon juice. Add the red onion. Pour in the egg white, place the top part of the bagel, and put the yolk in the hole. When the egg is ready, assemble the sandwich.

Bagel with Bacon: Fry the bacon slices in a pan until they are crispy. Prepare the bun as in the salmon version—fry the top part with the egg white and yolk in the hole. Spread ketchup on the bottom part, add lettuce, cheddar, bacon, and cover with the other half. Enjoy!
