PECAN MAPLE BAGEL SCHMEAR

• Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl; beat until thoroughly mixed.
• Feel free to add more syrup for a stronger flavor.
• To thin out regular cream cheese, add in milk, 1 tbsp at a time until desired consistency is reached.

BREAKFAST BAGEL, FEATURING TOMATO AND GARDEN CREAM CHEESE

Steps:

• Fold cream cheese ingedients together.
• You can also toss all the ingredients into a food processor, but I like a chunkier cream cheese.
• Slice bagels in half, lengthwise.
• Toast.
• Spread generously with cream cheese and top with tomato slices.
• I like to make sure every square centimeter is covered with tomato.
• Sprinkle with a little salt and a good amount of pepper; eat while still warm.

SCHMEAR (CREAM CHEESE WITH LOX SPREAD)

Steps:

• In a food processor, work the cream cheese until it is smooth, turning off the motor and scraping down the sides of the work bowl several times.
• Add the scallions, lox, salt and pepper. Continue working the cream cheese mixture until it is blended (by the way, it is okay if there are some chunks of salmon in the mixture).
• Remove cream cheese mixture to a pretty container or small bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve. Schmear on bagels, matzoh, or toasted pumpernickel or rye bread, or whatever you like.

CINNAMON-RAISIN SHMEAR
