Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by gathering all the ingredients. Slice the red onion thinly, chop the lettuce, and dice the tomato. If using bagels, slice them in half and toast them lightly if desired.

  2. 2

    Spread the Cream Cheese

    Take the cream cheese and spread it evenly on the cut side of each bagel half. If not using bagels, you can serve the lox on a plate with the other ingredients.

  3. 3

    Layer with Lox

    Place a generous portion of lox over the cream cheese on each bagel half or on the plate if serving without bagels.

  4. 4

    Add Vegetables

    Top the lox with the sliced red onions, chopped lettuce, and diced tomato. Sprinkle the capers evenly over the top.

  5. 5

    Garnish

    If desired, sprinkle fresh dill over the assembled dish for added flavor and presentation.
