Instructions

Choose the right serving dish for your spread. I recommend a big platter or a large wooden or marble cutting board.
Fan the salmon slices so that they're slightly overlapping on top of each other.
Fill a ramekin with 1 cup of cream cheese.
Lay out the boursin cheese straight on the board, or inside a ramekin.
Arrange the cucumber slices, tomato slices, onion slices and lemon slices in different clumps around the board.
Add capers in a small bowl.
To toast the bagels, set the oven to the broil function, and lay out the bagels facing down. Slide the baking sheet into the oven on the lowest rack - this is important to prevent the bagels from burning! Toast bagels into the oven upside down for about 4 minutes, constantly checking them to prevent them from catching fire.
Add the bagels to the board, right side up, and serve the lox and bagel board.

Notes

Always offer plain cream cheese, but you can supplement with additional cream cheese flavors if making for a crowd.
The best bagels are sesame bagels. You can offer other types of bagels if increasing quantities.
You can whip your cream cheese for a more elegant, light and airy spread.
Substitute the sliced smoked salmon for a few scoops of tuna salad and add olives for a Middle Eastern bagel board. Add an Israeli salad to the spread.
Switch the salmon for a few different cheeses if making this into a vegetarian bagel spread.
You can also add the following additions:
avocado slices
honey
bacon
olives
fresh herbs like dill and parsley
