Ingredients
  

2 Everything Bagels

4 tablespoons cream cheese (plain or flavored)

1 ripe avocado, sliced into thin pieces

1 small cucumber, sliced thinly

2 radishes, sliced thinly

1 tablespoon capers, rinsed and drained

1 tablespoon fresh dill, finely chopped

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Sea salt and black pepper, to taste

Red pepper flakes, for garnish (optional)

Olive oil, for drizzling

Instructions
 

Toast the Bagels: Preheat your toaster or broiler. Slice each bagel in half and toast until they're golden brown and crispy. For an extra crunch, you can place them under the broiler for an additional 1-2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.

    Prepare the Cream Cheese Spread: In a small mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese with fresh dill and lemon juice. Stir until well blended. Season the mixture with a pinch of sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to enhance the flavors.

      Assemble the Toasts:

        - Spread a generous layer of the creamy dill mixture on each toasted bagel half.

          - Layer the sliced avocado evenly across the cream cheese spread, ensuring every bite gets creamy avocado.

            - Top the avocado with a decorative arrangement of cucumber and radish slices for a fresh crunch.

              Add Capers and Finish: Sprinkle the rinsed capers over the layered vegetables, adding a delightful brininess. Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over each toast to enhance the richness and flavor.

                Season to Taste: Add a finishing touch with a sprinkle of sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and red pepper flakes if you enjoy a little heat for a well-rounded flavor.

                  Serve and Enjoy: Carefully plate your crunchy Everything Bagel toasts and serve immediately while they’re still warm and crisp to make the most of their delightful texture.
