Perhaps one of the most under-rated breads is the humble Bagel. The bagel has traveled through centuries, cultures, histories and generations -- and yet never lost it's simplicity. The chewy, soft and just-about-perfect softness make it unique.
The most popular way of enjoying a bagel is to slice it in half, warm it and spoon over some cream cheese and eat. While it works for me, sometimes I do find myself running out of time or just wanting to add little more zing to it. Thats when the bagel-wich comes to play.
Yes you guessed it right, it's a Bagel Sandwich! Simple, fast, delicious and filling. You can't ask for a better recipe than this to curb the hunger pangs when the clock's ticking!
