Ingredients
Scale
For the Bagel:
- 2 sesame or plain bagels (halved and toasted)
For the Avocado Mash:
- 1 ripe avocado (peeled, pitted, and mashed)
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- Salt and black pepper to taste
For the Halloumi:
- 6 slices of halloumi cheese (about 1/4-inch thick)
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 2 teaspoons honey
- A pinch of chili flakes (optional)
- Fresh arugula or baby spinach (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Avocado Mash: In a small bowl, mash the avocado with lemon juice, salt, and pepper until smooth and creamy.
- Cook the Halloumi: Heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook the halloumi slices for about 2–3 minutes on each side until golden brown and slightly crispy.
- Assemble the Bagel: Toast the bagel halves until lightly golden. Spread the mashed avocado evenly on the bottom halves of each bagel. Layer the warm halloumi slices on top, then drizzle with honey. Sprinkle with chili flakes if using, and add a handful of fresh arugula or baby spinach for extra freshness. Top with the other bagel halves and serve immediately.
Notes
- For extra flavor, try adding a squeeze of lime or a smear of hummus.
- You can also grill the bagels for a more toasty texture.
