- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves (romaine or butter lettuce)
- 1 medium Tomato
- 0.5 medium Cucumber
- 0.25 medium Red onion
- 1 medium Avocado
- 0.5 cup Carrot (grated)

Instructions
Slice the bagels in half horizontally and lightly toast them until golden brown. Set aside to cool slightly.
Spread 1 tablespoon of cream cheese (or hummus) evenly on each half of the toasted bagels.
Rinse and pat dry the lettuce leaves. Place one lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bagel.
Slice the tomato and cucumber into thin rounds. Layer 2-3 slices of tomato and 2-3 slices of cucumber over the lettuce on each bagel.
Peel and slice the red onion into thin rings. Add a few onion rings to each sandwich, adjusting to taste.
Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice the avocado thinly and arrange the slices over the other vegetables on each bagel.
Evenly distribute the grated carrot and microgreens or sprouts on top of the avocado slices.
Sprinkle salt and black pepper over the assembled vegetables for added flavor.
Place the top half of each toasted bagel on the assembled ingredients to form a sandwich.
