Cucumber Cream Cheese Spread with Everything Bagel Chips

 

For the Cucumber Cream Cheese Spread

 

1 8 oz package Cream Cheese room temperature

2 small Cucumbers grated (about 1 cup)

2 stalks Scallions thinly sliced

2 tablespoon Fresh Cilantro finely chopped

2 tablespoon Fresh Mint finely chopped

2 tablespoon Grainy Mustard

½ Lemon juiced

1 pinch Flaky Salt

 

For the Everything Bagel Chips

 

6 Mini Bagels thinly sliced

3 tablespoon Avocado OIl

3 tablespoon Everything Bagel Seeds

 

Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Meanwhile, add cream cheese, grated cucumber, chopped scallion, cilantro, mint, grainy mustard, lemon juice and a huge pinch of kosher salt together in a large bowl. Use an electric mixer to whip the ingredients together until combined. Let this cream cheese mixture rest for at least 20 minutes for the flavors to come together. For the Bagel chips, thinly slice your bagels and add them to a large bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and everything bagel seeds and toss to coat. Place each piece evenly spaced apart on a baking sheet and add more oil and everything bagel seeds if necessary – you want them coated! Bake for 10-20 minutes (some bagels crisp up faster than others) or until they’re light golden brown and crunchy. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
