- 4 ounces Low sodium smoked salmon
- 4 tablespoons Cream cheese, low sodium

- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.5 whole Cucumber, thinly sliced

Instructions
Begin by preparing the cream cheese spread. In a small bowl, combine the low sodium cream cheese, fresh dill, lemon zest, and freshly ground black pepper. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Slice the low sodium bagels in half horizontally and, if desired, lightly toast them to enhance their flavor.
Generously spread the dill cream cheese mixture over each half of the toasted bagel.
Arrange the thinly sliced cucumber and red onion on top of the cream cheese layer on each bagel half.
Evenly divide the low sodium smoked salmon and layer it over the cucumber and onion.
If you like, sprinkle some capers over the top for an extra burst of flavor, keeping in mind any sodium restrictions.
Top each bagel half with the remaining bagel tops and serve immediately.
