2. Slice bagels into 1/8 inch thick rounds using a serrated knife. Arrange them in a single layer on the greased baking sheet. In a small bowl, stir together the olive oil, garlic, Italian seasoning, and Parmesan cheese. Use a spoon or pastry brush to apply the flavored olive oil to the bagel chips. If you start to run out of the mixture, you can add a little bit more oil without sacrificing any flavor. Season the chips lightly with salt and pepper.

Make Your Own Bagel Chips:
Make your own bagel chips by cutting bagels into 1/8 inch slices, placing them in a single layer on a baking sheet, and toasting in a 350 degree oven for 5 minutes on a side, or until golden brown. If desired, the bagel slices can be bushed lightly with olive oil and sprinkled with salt, herbs, sesame seeds or other topping of your choice before baking.
Bagel chips taste great with onion dip, ranch dip or hummus!

Hmmm.... If they are plain bagels (not blueberry or something like that) you could use them as the bread for a sandwich! Cut them in half and add everything you like on your sub! They make good breakfast sandwiches too! You could also cut it in half and use the halves as pizza crust! Add some pizza sauce, cheese and whatever other toppings you like and bake it until the cheese melts!
- Toasted with fresh peanut butter and jam.
- Toasted with mashed avocado, fresh pepper, a tomato slice, and bacon.
- Bagel pizzas.
Stuffed Bagels
Lay a bagel of your choice on a small pan. Spread the top of the bagel with mustard of your choice. Stuff the hole with several pieces of thinly sliced lunchmeat ham. Lay across the entire bagel, a slice of swiss cheese (covering the mustard and the ham-stuffed hole. Bake the entire thing, slice and eat with a fork.
Below, I've linked you to a picture trail of the same recipe, but using a soft pretzel instead of a bagel.
Also, try a recipe for a bagel casserole which is essentially a "bagel lasagne" but with breakfast ingredients. Pretty inventive, actually. I've included that link, as well.
toast them a bit and put some nutella

Bagel, toasted
Cream Cheese- soft enough to spread
Red Onion- sliced thin in rounds
RIPE tomato ( if you can't get ripe- forget it)
