2. Quick and Easy: This recipe comes together in minutes, making it ideal for busy mornings when you need a wholesome meal on the go.

Ingredients

• Bagel: Provides the perfect base for the filling, with its chewy texture and hint of sesame flavour.
• Eggs: Hard-boiled eggs add protein and a creamy texture to the filling, making it more satisfying.
• Avocado: Creamy and rich, avocado adds healthy fats and a delicious flavour to the filling.
• Goat's cheese or feta: Adds a tangy and creamy element to the filling, balancing the flavours.
• Red onion: Adds a pop of colour and a mild onion flavour to the filling.
• Chives: Fresh chives add a subtle onion flavour and a hint of freshness to the filling.
• Chilli flakes: Adds a touch of heat and spice to the filling, enhancing the overall flavour.
• Salt and pepper: Seasonings that bring out the flavours of the ingredients and add depth to the filling.
• Butter: Used for toasting the bagel slices, adding richness and a golden brown crust.

See recipe card for quantities.

Hint: For easy-to-peel hard-boiled eggs, place them in boiling water for 10-12 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath to cool before peeling.

Substitutions

1. Cream cheese: If you don't have goat's cheese or feta, you can use cream cheese as a creamy alternative.
2. Red pepper flakes: Substitute red pepper flakes for chilli flakes if you prefer a milder heat.
3. Whole grain bagel: For a healthier option, swap the sesame seed bagel for a whole grain or multigrain bagel.

Storage

Best served fresh or add a good squeeze of lemon to the egg and avocado mixture and it should keep for a day in the fridge.
