OLYMPIC RINGS BAGEL BAR

Steps:

• Prepare one bagel half in each color of the Olympic rings and arrange on a platter. Put out halved bagels, cream cheese (plain and scallion) and bowls of toppings so guests can assemble their own.

• Black: Spread bagels with cream cheese; top with sliced pitted black olives.
• Red: Spread bagels with cream cheese; top with smoked salmon and sliced plum tomatoes. Drizzle with lemon juice.
• Yellow: Spread bagels with cream cheese; top with sliced yellow grape or cherry tomatoes; season with salt.
• Green: Mash 1 avocado with the juice of 1 lemon; season with salt and pepper. Spread on bagels; top with sliced Persian cucumbers and season with more salt and pepper.

HIGH BAR OLYMPIC CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl, whisk the egg whites lightly to a froth. Add the yogurt and whisk to combine. In another large bowl, combine the cornmeal, bread crumbs, cayenne, black pepper, oregano, paprika and salt.
• Dip the chicken breasts in the flour. Then dip them in the beaten egg whites, and finally in the seasoned cornmeal/bread crumb mixture. After breading the chicken, place it on a non-stick cookie sheet or a low sided roasting pan and put it in the oven.
• Cook for 35 minutes or until fully cooked and crispy brown.
• Serve with mashed potatoes blended with skim milk and non-fat sour cream.
