The ultimate bagel

Tonight my dinner was so delicious, that i felt that i should share it with everyone! I thought so highly of my meal, that I dare call it "The Ultimate Bagel"! In case you just have to try one for yourself, here is how you make it...it's simple:

1: Slice and toast the bagel of your choice

2: Drizzle with balsamic vinaigrette

3: Spread cream cheese over the top

4: top with sliced onion and fresh ground black pepper

5: tear and top with fresh basil leaves

6: layer with sliced tomatoes

7: finish off the top with thin sliced cucumbers!

And finally...The Ultimate Bagel! Plus, no meal is complete without a side dish. Tonight it is fried pickles! Yes, i said fried pickles. A big thank you to Mrs. Anna Jay for explaining the shallow fry process to me! Unfortunately, this new found knowledge may lead me to many more meals accompanied by fried side dishes. Oh well, only 4 more weeks to enjoy the good stuff than it's off to a strict sugar/starch free diet i go :(

Happy eating!

Lots of Love and Bunches of Hugs,
