Illustration

Preparation, uses, and tips

Toast bagels, spread with low-fat cream cheese, and top with thinly sliced red onion and cucumber.

Buying and storing tips

Buy bagels in the bakery, bread, or refrigerated- or frozen-food sections of most health food and grocery stores. Choose the whole-grain variety whenever possible. Store in a plastic bag at room temperature, and use within a couple of days.

Varieties

Bagels come in dozens of varieties, from sweet to savory, and may contain dried fruit, nuts, seeds (usually poppy or sesame), herbs, spices, or sweeteners. They’re available in whole-wheat, white, and multi-grain varieties.
