Notes
To store leftover Cucumber Bagels, wrap them in plastic wrap or place them in an airtight container. Keep them in the fridge for up to 2 days, but note that the cucumbers may become soggy over time. It’s best to prepare the cucumbers fresh when you are ready to eat. For extra crunch, add some lettuce or sprouts.
