Molly's Recipes: Bagel Sandwiches


I absolutely LOVE these bagel sandwiches for lunch! They are so easy to make, and they taste amazing, too. My family and I were inspired to make this recipe because we love the veggie sandwiches that they sell at Nugget Market, but they were kind of expensive. (Shhh, don’t tell Nugget I said that!) So we decided to try and recreate them, only on a bagel instead of bread! So here you go, I’m handing over the recipe to you now. Enjoy!


Ingredients:
- 1 plain bagel
- Salad mix or sliced lettuce
- Sliced cucumbers
- Sliced red bell peppers
- Sandwich pickles
- Condiments of your choice

1. Lightly toast your bagel, and then spread condiments of your choice on either side of it.

2. Pile on the salad mix, cucumbers, peppers and pickles, cut in half, and enjoy!

Option:
You can put on whatever condiments you like. My favorites are honey mustard and Vegenaise (a vegan mayonnaise). You can also change up the veggies on the sandwich to suit your own personal taste as well.

Serves: 1
Prep Time: 5 minutes

Molly's Recipes: All-Natural Soda


Looking for a healthy (but equally delicious) alternative to soda? Then you should love this recipe! This soda is so refreshing, and is much better for you than regular soda is. It is perfect to have on a hot day when you need something cold and hydrating. Me and my family love this recipe, and it’s so simple and inexpensive that anyone can easily make it at home. Enjoy!


 Ingredients:
- Any flavor of 100% juice
- Seltzer water
- Crushed ice

1. Fill a large drinking glass with the crushed ice.

2. Then fill the drinking glass about 1/3 of the way full with seltzer water.

3. Fill glass the rest of the way with the fruit juice, stick a straw in, and enjoy!

Option:
You can change up the flavor of your soda by changing the juice flavor. You could make grape soda, (grape juice) cranberry soda, (cranberry juice) or even orange soda (orange juice.)
