When I’m reminded of the bagels in New York and New Jersey, I envision massive amounts of cream cheese sandwiched between a still-warm sesame or everything bagel. I’m a big cream cheese advocate. Whether it’s plain, vegetable, olive or chocolate peanut butter cream cheese, I like it all. Unfortunately, a bagel with regular cream cheese runs you about 700 calories and 40g of fat. Nonfat cream cheese, on the other hand, is almost all protein. This spread makes for a nutritious but more importantly, delicious snack. I always keep a double batch on hand, it will go faster than you think.
