Recipe - Bagel And Roasted Sweet Red Pepper Sandwich

1 Bagel; cut or sliced up , (preferably
nice and fresh from a bagel
bakery)
2 tablespoon Fatfree cream cheese
Roasted Sweet Red Pepper
pieces

One of my favorite lowfat quick lunches is a sandwich made of:

I found these terrific roasted red peppers in a jar in a grocery store I
was sauntering through during my travels one day. The brand name is Roland
and they say Italian Style Fire Roasted Peppers. The ingredients are
peppers, water, salt, ascorbic acid. They have a little bit of blackened
skin so they are tastier than the usual jarred ones. I've found other
brands that are like these, also, usually at specialty markets or larger
groceries.

Of course, you can roast your own, too.

There are alot of calories in the bagels and this is extremely filling, so
you might want to have a half of a sandwich. Use as many pepper slices as
you can fit on the sandwich there are only about 1020 calories per slice
(depending on how big the pieces are) and no fat. If you want, add cut or sliced up
onions, cukes or other vegetables whatever you can fit. If packing for
lunch, wrap securely in waxed paper and/or a zip lock bag to keep the
moisture from dripping out. Take a big napkin! ENJOY!!
