Green Bagels For Breakfast

You can’t start the day off better than with coffee and a bagel. Since it’s St Patrick’s Day, why not spike that coffee with some Bailey’s Irish cream and follow this cool recipe from sheknows.com for homemade green bagels and chive cream cheese. If you have an extra kick in your step after this breakfast, just remember: it’s not from the Bailey’s, it’s from the fact that your bagel was green.
