Breakfast Bagel Featuring Tomato And Garden Cream Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Grease a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the sausage and cook, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon, until brown, about 5 minutes; transfer to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
• Whisk together the milk, half-and-half, cayenne, eggs, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Fold in the sausage, spinach, bagels and 3/4 cup of the provolone, then pour into the prepared baking dish. Dot the top with the cream cheese and sprinkle all over with the everything bagel seasoning and remaining provolone (see Cook's Note).
• Cover with foil and bake for 45 minutes. Uncover and bake until the casserole is puffed, golden brown at the edges and set in the center, about 45 minutes more. Let cool 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Spread cream cheese on bagel halves. Top cream cheese with tomato slices. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with fresh basil leaves.

Steps:

• Fold cream cheese ingedients together.
• You can also toss all the ingredients into a food processor, but I like a chunkier cream cheese.
• Slice bagels in half, lengthwise.
• Toast.
• Spread generously with cream cheese and top with tomato slices.
• I like to make sure every square centimeter is covered with tomato.
• Sprinkle with a little salt and a good amount of pepper; eat while still warm.
