Better than fast-food fare, these savory sandwiches with veggie cream cheese and zesty olives will have mouths watering in the morning. "For a change of pace, prepare them with other cream cheeses or speed things up by using precooked bacon warmed in the microwave," advise Chris and Jenny Thackray of Corpus Christi, Texas.

BACON AND BAGELS (LOW FAT)



Bacon and Bagels (Low Fat) image

This is a VERY easy breakfast that I paired down the calories count. I love making it because it's easy to clean up and prepare. I haven't had them in years, but I'm always looking for something new to do to so my girlfriend won't get bored with the standard favorites. (Also great for breakfast in bed...). You can certainly disregard the "Lower-Cal" style and go with Regular Bacon, Regular Cream Cheese and Regular Bagels. If you try it, let me know what you think.

Time 7m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 miniature bagels (I get the 100 calorie ones)
4 slices turkey bacon
4 tablespoons fat-free cream cheese
1 whole tomato (cut in to 4 slices)
1 teaspoon cooking oil (choose your favorite)

Steps:

  • Add a bit of oil in a frying pan at medium high heat. Fry the Turkey Bacon to desired crispiness, (I like it a bit crispier for this recipe) you can also cook the bacon in the Microwave is you wanted to. While cooking the bacon, slice and open the bagels and toast in toaster or Toaster Oven. When Bacon is done to desired crispiness, drain off excess grease. Cut bacon strips in half (width wise). Spread Cream cheese, on one or both halves (i do it on both). Add 1 slice of tomato and both bacon halves and make in to sandwiches and they are ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Choosing lean bacon and low-fat cream cheese can significantly reduce the fat content of your bagel sandwich.
  • Using whole-wheat or multigrain bagels instead of white bagels can increase the fiber and nutrient content of your sandwich.
  • Adding fresh vegetables, such as tomatoes, spinach, or cucumbers, can add flavor, texture, and nutrients to your sandwich.
  • Using low-fat or fat-free yogurt instead of cream cheese can create a healthier spread for your bagel.
  • Experiment with different bagel toppings, such as avocado, smoked salmon, or fruit, to create a variety of flavorful and healthy bagel sandwiches.

Conclusion:

Making low-fat bagel sandwiches at home allows you to control the ingredients and ensure that you are using healthy options. By following the tips provided in this article, you can create delicious and satisfying bagel sandwiches that are also good for you.
