1
Make the whipped scallion cream cheese
In a medium bowl, combine the cream cheese and finely chopped scallions. Mix well with a fork or hand mixer until smooth and well blended. Set aside.
2
Prepare the lox
Take the cured salmon (lox) and slice it into thin strips if not already pre-sliced. Set aside.

3
Fry the capers
In a small pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the capers and fry for 2-3 minutes until they become crispy. Remove from heat and drain on a paper towel.

4
Toast the bagel
Slice the bagel in half and toast it until golden brown, either in a toaster or on a skillet.
5
Spread the cream cheese
Once the bagel is toasted, spread a generous amount of the whipped scallion cream cheese on each half.
6
Add lox and capers
Layer the lox slices on top of the cream cheese and sprinkle the fried capers over the lox.
7
Garnish
Finish with a sprinkle of fresh dill on top of the lox and capers.

8
Prepare the fruit cup
In a small bowl, arrange assorted fresh fruit of your choice (such as berries, melon, or citrus) to serve alongside the bagel.
9
Plate the dish
Serve the assembled lox bagel with the fruit cup on the side. Enjoy!
