    Beautiful Sunday brunch dish. We improvised a little. Capers instead of bagel seasoning. Watercress instead of cucumbers. Eggs over easy instead of hard cooked. Delicious, and very easy to put together. I would have loved the recipe as written just as much. Thank you!

    Eggs, cucumber, and cream cheese all have carbs.

    I thought this dish may not be filling enough, so I had them with English muffins. Used 1 hard boiled egg. Left out the cucumber, used old bay seasoning instead of everything bagel seasoning. It was really delicious. Had 1.5 muffins.

    What can be substituted for Salmon? I'm not a salmon eater. Don't like the taste or texture.
