Calling all grilled cheese fans and those that enjoy a good bagel sandwich! This is incredibly worthy of trying, super fast and easy to make and your taste buds will thank you!
Bagels Need Toppings....
When I was 20, I worked for a wine service a few towns over and found a bagel shop called Manhatten Bagel (that has since gone out of business near me) for lunch. They do seem to have other locations, just not in my area. They had the most amazing bagel sandwich concoctions and this is a variation of my favorite!
Grilled Cheese, Tomato On A Bagel
They served it as a closed sandwich and added sprouts. I am not a spout fan, but you certainly can add sprouts should you fancy!
Serve this toasted bagel sandwich open-faced and use a fork and knife to devour. This cheesy goddess of a sandwich can be slightly messy in a completely delicious way. It takes about 5 minutes to whip up and less time to consume. Pairs well with potato salad, side salad, or chips.
