I've recently become obsessed with bagels. These flavours were inspired by walking around the supermarket and thinking "what do I fancy", so I grabbed the first foods that inspired my tastebuds. These bagels are packed with flavour and you'll definitely be craving more! Simple yet satisfying.

Method
Cut the bagels in half
Take the tops of the bagels and grate the cheese over the top. Once the cheese is on top, sprinkle over the garlic powder/granules and then the mixed herbs.
Pop the cheese sprinkled bagel tops under the grill until the cheese has melted. Whilst the tops are grilling pop the bottoms into the toaster until lightly browned.
Next put the mayonnaise into a small dish, add the chilli flakes and the apple cider vinegar. Mix the condiment well. Now spread the mayonnaise over the bagel bottoms.
Place the jalapenos on top of the mayonnaise, then the pastrami slices go on top. Now for the cheese, split the slice of gouda and slice of emmental into 4 and then place a couple of each on top of the pastrami.
Sprinkle the paprika over the cheese, place the gherkins on top and then place under the grill until the cheese starts to melt.
Last step is to place the bagel tops on and then you are ready to eat.
You can replace the pastrami for another meat, halloumi, something veggie or vegan as a replacement.
If you're not a fan of heat, remove the chilli flakes and jalapenos. You could even replace with some pickled red cabbage.
Eat warm or cold, they're tasty either way.
