Lox & Avocado Bagel

• 1 ripe avocado, peeled

• 1 tsp. lemon juice

• Black pepper to taste

• 2 bagels

• 2 slices of lox (or 4 thin strips)*

• 2 slices red onion

• 4 slices tomato

• 1 tsp. capers, rinsed (optional)

In a bowl, mash together avocado and lemon juice. Season with black pepper to taste. Split bagels; spread each half with avocado. Top with lox. Layer the onion, tomato and capers. Serve.

 

*Note: Lox is defined as a "fillet of brined salmon" that is first cured in a solution of water, salt, sugars and spices and then cold-smoked. Not to be confused with common smoked salmon, cold-smoking requires a smoker-cooker capable of keeping the temperature at 80-degress F or less. Prepared lox can be found in grocery stores and specialty markets.

 

Trivia: "Lox" is the Yiddish word for salmon.
