Eat The Rainbow Bagel Sandwich Slice of Jess

This Bagel Sandwich is a necessity for weekend brunch festivities. Stuffed with crunchy veggies and spicy cream cheese, this beast of a sandwich has it all!

I’ll be the first to admit that I’m a carb-lovin’, bagel sandwich enthusiast.

There’s no better place to be than in-between the halves of a massive, fluffy bagel. Bagels were one of the first things I started to crave as a child… and they’re one of the most comforting things to nosh on as an adult. What’s your favorite bagel flavor? I’m an “everything bagel” kinda girl. Oooh, and Jalapeño Cheddar if the shop carries it.

BAGEL SANDWICH DO’S AND DON’TS:

DO add herbs and seasonings to your cream cheese spread.
DON’T make this meal ahead of time, it will get soggy.
DO toast the bagel halves for extra crunch.
DON’T be stingy with your fixin’s. Pile it on!
DO add bacon or a fried egg for extra protein.
DON’T add peanut butter to this recipe… that’s just weird.

Make sure to take photos of your bagel creations and tag me on Instagram so I can follow along. I absolutely love seeing what ya’ll make at home.
