WARM SMOKED SALMON AND BACON BAGEL

Start to finish: 25 minutes (5 minutes active)

Servings: 1

1 bagel

1/4 cup cream cheese (block-style, not whipped)

2 ounces smoked salmon

1 large tomato

Balsamic vinegar, to drizzle

Salt and ground black pepper, to taste

1 slice bacon, cooked

Heat the oven to 350 F.

Halve the bagel crosswise, then spread half of the cream cheese on each side. Top one half of the bagel with the salmon.

Cut a thick slice out of the center of the tomato; reserve the remaining tomato for another use. Place the tomato slice over the salmon, then drizzle it with a bit of balsamic vinegar. Season with salt and pepper.

Top the tomato with the bacon, breaking it into shorter lengths as needed to fit evenly. Top with the second half of the bagel, then tightly wrap the sandwich in foil. Place in the oven for 20 minutes, or until just heated through. Serve immediately.
