Ingredients
  

For the Sandwich:
  • 1 recipe Low Carb Bagels
  • 6 tbsp vegetable cream cheese
  • 12 oz smoked deli turkey thinly sliced
  • 1.5 cups cucumber thinly sliced
  • 2 small avocados thinly sliced
  • 2 large tomatoes sliced
  • 1.5 cups sweet pea shoots

Equipment

  • Sharp Knife
  • Spreading knife
  • Serving plate

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Low Carb Bagels. If you don’t have low carb bagels ready, start by making them according to your favorite recipe. Ensure they are fully cooled before slicing them in half.
  2. Step 2: Slice Your Vegetables. Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the cucumbers, avocados, and tomatoes. Set them aside on your cutting board for easy assembly.
  3. Step 3: Spread the Cream Cheese. Take your bagel halves and evenly spread 3 tablespoons of vegetable cream cheese on each half. This creamy layer will add flavor and moisture to your sandwich.
  4. Step 4: Layer the Ingredients. On one half of each bagel, start layering your ingredients. Begin with a generous portion of smoked deli turkey, followed by the sliced cucumbers, avocados, tomatoes, and finally the sweet pea shoots.
  5. Step 5: Assemble the Sandwich. Top each bagel half with its corresponding half to create a sandwich. Press down gently to hold everything together.
  6. Step 6: Slice and Serve. For easier handling, slice your bagel sandwich in half. Serve immediately and enjoy the crunch of the fresh veggies combined with the richness of the cream cheese and turkey!

Notes

  • For a dairy-free option, use a plant-based cream cheese alternative.
  • Substitute turkey with grilled chicken or tofu for a vegetarian option.
  • Store components separately to maintain freshness.
