Bagel Sandwiches

I was inspired to make this by looking at the Einstein Brothers Bagel website. I heart them bagels, and I remember eating one of their bagel sandwiches once. Yummy.

Bagel Sandwiches
Original recipe

1 package vegetable dip mix (such as this)
1 package cream cheese
alfalfa sprouts
fresh spinach
assorted bagels

Allow cream cheese to soften, either by heating it up, or by allowing to come to room temperature. Mix in the vegetable dip mix until well blended. Spread on bagel of your choice, and top with alfalfa sprouts and spinach.

My Notes

You can really use any vegetables you want. You can even omit the cream cheese and go for a chicken sandwich (but I like my sandwiches with a list moistness, and I'm not a fan of mustard or mayonnaise, so that's not a good option for me). I added some cucumbers once, but I got sick of the crunch of them before I was done with the sandwich. All in all, though, it's a nutritious and delicious lunch :)
