Quick and Easy Blueberry Bagel with Lemon Ricotta

Quick and easy to prepare, this is a tasty, easy treat for…well, whenever. And just in time for National Bagel Day on January 15! The creamy combination of fresh flavours on a blueberry bagel makes it a delicious choice for breakfast, snack time or even as dessert.

1 blueberry bagel (such as Dempster’s Signature Blueberry Bagel)
1/3 cup (75 mL) ricotta cheese
1 tsp (5 mL) honey
1/2 tsp (2 mL) lemon zest

1. Split and toast the bagel to your desired level of golden.
2. Stir together ricotta, honey and lemon zest. Spread lemon ricotta over both halves of the bagel.

Tips: For a more decadent variation, substitute mascarpone for ricotta cheese. Substitute maple syrup for honey if preferred.
