The chopped bagel works a treat, a little bit of everything in each mouthful can only be a good thing. This one is a flavour sensation - spicy, creamy, tangy and full of flavour and it makes the best speedy lunch.
Method
Preheat the oven to 200 degrees or 180 fan. Coat the sliced mushrooms in the seasonings then tip onto a lined baking tray and bake for 20 mins until crisp.
Place the chive cream cheese, spring onions, pickled jalapeños, fresh jalapeño and cheddar on a chopping board and chop until everything is mixed and fully incorporated. Add the mushrooms last, lightly chop and mix into the filling.
Place the filling into a bagel (or split between 2 bagels). Top with more cheese, grill to melt then add crushed crisps and top with the other bagel half. Serve and enjoy!
