Smoked Salmon Bagel

Smoked Salmon Bagel

In less than 5 minutes this filling healthy lunchtime meal can be made. Salmon is a great source of protein; so if you struggle to incorporate your daily protein requirements into your diet then try this lunch time meal. Salmon also contain iron which is vital as the mineral it contains allows your blood cells to supply your tissues with oxygen which is a fundamental process to help support your metabolism. Although bagels are not the perfect alternative to bread itself you can make wiser choices and buy whole-wheat bagels compared to white bagels, also I have used a 3% fat soft cheese, rather than something of full fat.  I would love to eat fresh salmon everyday but I know that this option can end up becoming very pricey; however I managed to find smoked Salmon slices for only £1.99 in Morrison’s, great purchase!
