Pizza Bagel Thins

I am in love with bagel thins.  As far as I'm concerned, they are way better than "diet" bagels, but they still only have 100 calories.  Top with some low-fat cream cheese and fruit, and you've got yourself a delicious breakfast or snack.

But wait, my friends - they are not just a morning food!  Top with your favorite pizza combos, and -poof- it's dinner time.

I love that you can be so flexible with these.  Next time I want to add spinach to these... or maybe try a Hawaiian version.  Yum.


Pizza Bagel Thins
  • 1 bagel flat
  • 2 tbs part skim ricotta cheese
  • 1/4 cup cooked chicken
  • 1/4 cup reduced fat mozzarella cheese
  • dried basil
  • garlic powder
  • Parmesan cheese
Lightly toast the bagel flat. Spread with ricotta cheese. Place chicken and top with mozzarella cheese. Sprinkle with basil, garlic powder and a little parm. Place under the broiler with door open until toppings are heating and cheese is slightly browned.

  2. They look so yummy! Hawaiian does sound awesome on a bagel.
    Are they crunchy? I'm picturing bagel crisps... or are they soft and just half a bagel?

  3. CRS - They were the perfect balance of slightly soft, yet still crunchy and manageable!

  4. I actually didn't love the bagel thins when I tried them, but I love this idea of using them for pizza bagels! Might have to give them another try...
