    Tips

    • I recommend slicing the onion quite thin so that the taste isn’t overpowering. Also don’t add too much, but adjust based on your personal preference.
    • Place a piece of lettuce on the bottom and top layer of your bagel sandwich to hold everything in.
    • If you use the cashew cream cheese recipe provided, you will have plenty leftover. Use it on other sandwiches or as a dip for veggies, chips, and crackers.

    Substitutions

    • I strongly recommend using the cashew cream recipe that is linked below for this recipe. You could also use any other vegan cream cheese that you enjoy, but I personally haven’t been able to find any store-bought vegan cream cheese that I really love.
    • Because this is such a simple recipe, you can easily add or remove any ingredients.
    • Additional ingredients you may want to add: tomato slices, shredded carrot, pickle slices.
