What to put on which kind of bagel?

mmmm....let's see...a toasted cinnamon bagel with peanut butter smeared on top (so it melts slightly because of the warm bagel), a sliced banana, and drizzled with honey. filling, nutritious, and delicious.

My favorites are a wheat or plain bagel with cream cheese and strawberry jam, a blueberry bagel with cinnamon walnut cream cheese, and an everything bagel with sharp cheddar and a slice of tomato. Mmm! I don't have bagels often, but this is really making me want one!

Smoked cheddar bagel, toasted, with green olive cream cheese. Pumpernickle, not toasted, with plain cream cheese, lox, capers, red onion and maybe tomato.

Plain, toasted, lox, capers, cream cheese (hey, I'm from the South; we're a little new to this party), or cinnamon-raisin, toasted, with sharp cheddar.

Of course, the game changes if they're *fresh* (and good) - but the only time that happens in my area is if I've made them. If then, the answer is always: fresh butter. Preferably homemade.

AGTV: Eggs Benedict Arnold

That was really great! The title caught my attention because when I was younger, I didn't like eggs at all and we had Eggs Benedict every Christmas morning. My dad would leave the egg off mine and call it, "Eggs Benedict Arnold".

Wheat with peanut butter and sliced banana. One of my pregnancy cravings that never went away. Second fave is pumpernickel with veggie cream cheese.

Nova lover here, also whitefish salad. Funny story when I was pregnant I went to Einstein's Bagels and ordered a cinnamon bagel with nova and cream cheese and onion. The woman who took my order gave me the strangest look. She repeated it to me, I said yes yes pregnant, She nodded and YES it was good. Would not do it today, but them it was good.

I'm with the nova lovers -- open-faced onion, sesame or poppy bagel with cream cheese, nova, onion and tomato (capers are good too). Mmmmm...

I also love a good tuna sandwich on a bagel -- sometimes cinnamon-raisin -- to get the sweet/savory combination.

Cinnamon-raisin bagel with sundried tomato spread....sounds like an odd combination but it works!

there was a time when the very idea of the cinnamon raisin bagel used to make me go house. i attributed the complete and rapid decline of the bagel (and the civilized world) to their their existence (less so, but also, to the everything bagel, which i believe is a product of the 1970s.). but, now, after years of therapy, i accept these bagels and the fact that a studio on the lower east side costs 2 grand.
