There are some days that are simply meant for grilling. Â Those days when you want nothing more than to sit on the patio, sip a cold beverage, and enjoy some time in the sunshine. Â You also don’t want to fuss around with lots of prep, so simple is the name of the game. Â Try these grilled bagels with dill cream cheese spread. Â I top mine with smoked trout to make it even more smokey and filling!
This grilled bagels with dill cream cheese spread recipe is so fast and easy you could even try it for breakfast. Â Especially on a slow weekend morning. Â They would make a great brunch, and you can customize extra toppings for any brunch guests. Â Happy grilling and have a great weekend!
Variations on the Grilled Bagels with Dill Cream Cheese Spread recipe:
- I used everything bagels, but plain or whole wheat bagels would work as well.
- If you don’t have fresh dill, try using 1 tsp dried dill. Â Or you can swap out for another herb that will fit with your toppings of choice.
- I topped the bagels with smoked trout. Â Try another topping like diced cucumber, grilled salmon, or shredded chicken if that’s your thing!
