Ingredients

• 2 pieces Bagels
• 1 large Avocado
• 0.5 cup Black beans
• 0.5 cup Shredded Mexican-style cheese
• 0.25 cup Salsa
• 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
• 1 medium Lime
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.125 teaspoon Pepper

Directions

Step 1

Slice the bagels in half and lightly toast them in a toaster or broiler for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mash the avocado with a fork. Add a squeeze of lime juice, ground cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined and smooth.

Step 3

Heat the black beans in a small saucepan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes or until warmed through. Alternatively, microwave the beans for 1 minute.

Step 4

Spread a generous layer of the avocado mixture on each toasted bagel half.

Step 5

Top the avocado spread with a spoonful of black beans, spreading them evenly.

Step 6

Sprinkle shredded Mexican-style cheese on top of the beans, ensuring an even layer on each bagel half.

Step 7

Place the bagels under a broiler or in a toaster oven for 1-2 minutes, just until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Keep a close eye to ensure they don’t burn.

Step 8

Remove the bagels from the broiler and top each with a dollop of salsa.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and an additional squeeze of lime juice if desired.

Step 10

Serve immediately and enjoy your Mexican Bagel!
