8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/2 tablespoon fresh chives, minced

1 tablespoon lemon juice
1/2 tablespoon lemon zest

1. In a stand mixer bowl whip cream cheese 2-3 minutes on high.

2. Add chives, dill, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Whip for an additional 2-3 minutes, until fully combined.

3. Make your bagel sandwich with 2 oz of Lemon Herby Schmear, 4 oz of salmon, red onion and capers.

Pro Tip: There are many types of smoked salmon, making it a bit overwhelming as a deli-goer when there are so many options and no clear difference between them all.
