Ingredients
- 1 piece Whole wheat bagel

- 0.5 cup Spinach leaves
- 0.25 piece Red onion
- 1 tablespoon Capers
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil or cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add olive oil or spray the pan with cooking spray.
Crack the egg into the skillet, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and cook for about 3-4 minutes or until the yolk reaches your desired doneness. Remove from heat and set aside.
Slice the whole wheat bagel in half and toast it until golden brown.
While the bagel is toasting, thinly slice the red onion.
Spread a tablespoon of low-fat cream cheese on each half of the toasted bagel, ensuring even coverage.
Layer spinach leaves and smoked salmon evenly over the cream cheese on both halves of the bagel.
Place the cooked egg on one half of the bagel, followed by slices of red onion and a sprinkle of capers.
Top with the remaining half of the bagel, cream cheese side down, pressing gently to hold everything together.
Slice the bagel in half for easier handling if desired, and serve immediately.
