I recently wrote a post for UrbanMoms and shared a recipe for Dill-icious Bagels created by Food Network Chef Bob Blumer. Well, it looked so good that I wanted to give it a try for myself! It’s a keeper and so darn easy. It gives regular plain cream cheese a little more flavour. All you need are cream cheese, cucumber, fresh dill, orange, salt, pepper and of course, bagels!

The first thing to do is to slice half a cucumber into very thin slices. Put the slices in a bowl and add salt. Then you mix it up with your hands until the cucumber releases water (about 1 minute).

The next thing to do is make the cream cheese mixture. Combine cream cheese, chopped fresh dill, orange zest and pepper together with a fork.

Toast your bagels the way you like them.

Spread the cream cheese mixture onto the toasted bagel.

Place cucumbers on top of the cream cheese and serve. Yum!
