A Plain Bagel with Smoked Salmon and Cream Cheese is a classic dish rooted in Jewish-American cuisine, often enjoyed as a staple of brunch culture. It features a soft, chewy bagel topped with a creamy layer of tangy cream cheese and delicate slices of smoked salmon (lox), sometimes accompanied by red onion, capers, or dill for added flavor. The bagel provides a hearty dose of carbohydrates, offering energy, while the smoked salmon delivers high-quality protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and essential vitamins like B12. Cream cheese contributes calcium and some protein, but it is also high in fat and calories, so moderation is key. While the dish is rich in nutrients from the salmon, it is relatively high in sodium due to the curing process and the cream cheese. It's a delicious, balanced option when paired with fresh veggies or enjoyed as part of a larger meal.
