Adulting is hard. Breakfast doesn't have to be. Why settle for dry cereal when you can have a ridiculously good bagel breakfast to start your day. Skip the cream cheese and make something way more fun instead like a PBJ Bagel, a Caesar Salad Bagel, or, yes, even a Pizza Bagel. If traditional breakfast is your game, try a smoked salmon topper or Everything in a Hole--you won't be sorry.

Apple-Cinnamon Bagel

Apple-Cinnamon Bagel Recipe

For a slightly sweet and portable snack, take a bite out of Apple-Cinnamon Bagel. We use a whole-wheat bagel thin to get the same great bagel taste, fiber, and carbohydrates with only half of the calories.
