Ingredients
For the sandwiches
1 bagel
1 Tbsp sun dried tomato spread (see below)
1 Tbsp Garlic and Herb cream cheese
2 slices deli turkey
Thinly sliced red onion, for serving
1 romain lettuce leaf, for serving
For the sun dried tomato spread
1 6-oz can tomato paste
1 8.5-oz jar sun-dried tomatoes, packed in oil (I use Trader Joe’s)
1 Tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
Instructions
For the sun dried tomato spread
Place all ingredients in a blender or food processor and blend until well combined. Store in the refrigerator up to one week.
For the sandwiches
Halve the bagel. Spread 1 Tbsp sun dried tomato spread on one side and 1 Tbsp Garlic and Herb cream cheese on the other side. On the bottom half of the bagel, layer lettuce, then turkey, then thinly sliced red onion. Close up the bagel sandwich with the half topped with cream cheese and enjoy!
Notes
Make the bagels and sun-dried tomato spread ahead of time so all you have to do at lunch is assemble!
