Spicy Cream Cheese Spread Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F. Line 2 half-sheet trays with parchment paper.
• Toss tomatoes with olive oil, sugar, salt, pepper and thyme leaves in a large bowl. Spread on a lined half-sheet tray and slow-roast, stirring every hour, until little to no liquid remains and the tomatoes are shriveled and caramelized, about 3 hours 30 minutes. Set aside and raise oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
• Arrange bacon slices side-by-side on a lined half-sheet tray and cook to desired doneness, 20 to 25 minutes for just under crispy. Carefully remove from oven (watch out for hot bacon fat!) and drain on paper towels.
• Slice and toast bagels. Spread 2 tablespoons Spicy Pepper Cream Cheese on each bagel half. Arrange 6 to 8 pieces roasted tomatoes on the bottom halves. Top each with 3 leaves lettuce, torn to fit. Divide the bacon among the top halves, ripping the pieces in half to fit the tops. Close, slice and enjoy. (See Cook's Note.)
