I am a huge salmon lover and huge lover of easy, cold meals when the heat index is 115 degrees outside so a Gravlax bagel is the perfect easy summer snack or meal. Add capers, red onion, and dill and perfection. I also have been working on my food photography so excuse the bajillion pictures of such a simple meal.
- Cream cheese
- Red onion, julienned
- Dill, minced
- Gravlax, sliced
- Capers
- Salt and pepper
- Bagels
- Toast the bagels.
- Spread cream cheese on bagels.
- Layer capers and sliced onions on bagels.
- Add salmon on top.
- Sprinkle dill on salmon and salt/ pepper as needed.
Enjoy! I know this isn't a ground breaking recipe, but definitely a super delicious one especially when it is hot outside. What are your favorite meals when the mercury rises? What are your favorite meals when you have about 0 time to cook?
Happy Hump Day!

This is one of my favorite things ever!! Last night, Josh and I made a cold chicken salad with tomatoes, corn, avocado, olive oil, and lime juice inside pita and it was a great summer dinner!
ReplyDeleteYum!! i just make big, easy salads for hot nights with little time...or quesadillas!
ReplyDeleteDid you get a new camera? Photos look great! My go to meal is toast and hummus when I'm lazy and/or out of time :)
ReplyDeleteAgree with Lonely Wife, fantastic images. I love bagel w/lox, especially with the capers, delish!
ReplyDeleteTotally agree with the consensus here. The pix look amazing! And I break for capers. I'd eat almost anything if you sprinkle them on top :)
ReplyDeleteYou make red onion look like art. Yum Yum!
ReplyDeleteThe first picture is AMAZING. I thought it was a professional photo!! Wow. Taking food pictures is hard. I love, love, love salmon and capers too. Oh, and bagels. Basically, this is my perfect meal.
ReplyDeleteI can only assume you live somewhere on the east coast to be enjoying lox and a bagel.
ReplyDeleteSeems simple, but bagel and lox is legit my fav food! Haah
ReplyDeleteMmm... This is my husband's dream breakfast. He'll have it any and every day of the week.
