ThinSlim Bagels can go in a sweet or savory direction, depending on the flavor you start with. Plain, Everything, and Cinnamon all list one bagel as a serving with 90 calories, 0 g net carbs, 14 g protein, and 14 g fiber.
Toast the cut sides first if you want a crisp surface for a soft topping. Keep wetter ingredients, such as tomato or berries, away from the cut side until you are ready to eat. The bagel label covers the bagel itself. Toppings add their own nutrition and allergens.
Start with Plain Bagels for the widest range
Plain Bagels are the most flexible. For a savory breakfast, spread cream cheese on both cut sides, then add smoked salmon and cucumber. Put the cucumber in the middle so it does not slide out with the first bite.
For a sweeter plate, use cream cheese and berries. Add the berries just before you eat, or put them on the side if you pack breakfast. Nut butter with banana slices makes another easy option. Plain does not steer you toward a single flavor, so one package can cover several meals.
Use Everything Bagels for savory toppings
Everything Bagels bring onion, garlic, poppy seeds, sesame seeds, and caraway seeds to the table. That savory topping works especially well with mild, creamy fillings.
Try egg, cheese, and tomato for breakfast. Keep the tomato slices thin and blot them before you add them. For lunch, layer turkey with lettuce and a spread. Put the lettuce next to the bagel to keep the spread and tomato from meeting the cut side too soon.
Use Cinnamon Bagels for a sweeter meal
Cinnamon Bagels add cinnamon and stevia to the original bagel recipe. Butter or cream cheese makes a simple breakfast. Nut butter and berries add more texture, while mild cream cheese and apple slices make a sweet, crisp combination.
Slice apple thinly and add it at the last minute so it stays crisp. A pinch of cinnamon or a few chopped nuts can add more texture. Keep savory fillings simple, so the cinnamon remains the main note.
Make a bagel meal that fits the time of day
For breakfast, add eggs, cream cheese, fruit, or nut butter. For lunch, turn a Plain or Everything Bagel into a sandwich. For a snack, split one and give each half a different topping.
