Ingredients
Scale
- 1 large bagel (plain or everything seasoned)
- Cream cheese (for spreading)
- Black olives or olive slices (for the googly eyes)
- Mini pickles or small vegetables (optional, for added fun)
- Sesame seeds, poppy seeds, dried garlic, dried onion, sea salt (for the topping, mimicking the traditional everything bagel seasoning)
- Food-safe googly eyes (or make your own with cheese or dough)
- Colored candies or toppings for extra flair
- Herbs like chives or parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Toast the bagel: Cut the bagel in half and lightly toast it to bring out the flavor and provide a sturdy base.
- Spread the cream cheese: Generously spread cream cheese on both halves of the bagel for a tasty base.
- Decorate with googly eyes: Use black olives or small vegetable slices to create googly eyes. Attach them to the cream cheese with a tiny dab of additional cream cheese or food-safe adhesive.
- Add fun details: Place mini pickles or other small veggies as additional googly eyes or decorations for extra humor and visual appeal.
- Top with seasoning: Sprinkle the traditional everything bagel seasoning generously over the cream cheese for authentic flavor.

Notes
- Store leftover bagels in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reassemble and decorate just before serving for freshness.
- Spread cream cheese and attach googly eyes just prior to serving to prevent sogginess.
