Key Ingredients for Smoked Salmon Breakfast Bowl
This loaded breakfast bowl is so simple to make. Make a batch of the chickpeas for a week’s worth of meals, then store the other bowl components in the fridge until you’re ready to assemble and eat.
- Everything But the Bagel Seasoning: The beloved bagel topping as a spice blend.
- Tapioca Flour: This helps make the chickpeas crispy. You can swap this for arrowroot starch or cornstarch.
- Canned Chickpeas: Rinse, drain, and dry the chickpeas before adding them to the sheet pan.

Pin It- Lox or Smoked Salmon: This protein option is a great way to get your fill of healthy omega-3 fatty acids. You’ll find lox (salt-cured salmon belly) or smoked salmon (cured and smoked salmon) in the refrigerated section of the grocery store.
- Pickled Red Onion: You can buy a jar of this, or make your own.
Quick Pickled Red Onion Recipe
Add thinly sliced red onion to a heat-safe jar. Combine 1 cup of hot water, 1/2 cup of white vinegar, 1 tablespoon of coconut sugar, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of salt and whisk until dissolved. Pour over onions and allow to sit for about an hour before storing them in the fridge.
- Serving Suggestions: I like to add a base of arugula, drizzled with olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon. Then, add a few pieces of the smoked salmon, followed by a scoop of the chickpeas, a forkful of pickled red onions, avocado slices, and sprinkle with a few capers and fresh dill.
How to Make Smoked Salmon Breakfast Bowl
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Add the avocado oil, everything but the bagel seasoning, and tapioca flour or arrowroot starch to a bowl and whisk to combine. Add in the chickpeas and toss until evenly coated.
Taste and add more salt if needed, depending on the saltiness of the EBTB seasoning you’re using.
Add the chickpeas to a sheet pan and roast in the oven for 18 to 20 minutes.
Assemble each bowl with a layer of arugula, a drizzle of olive oil, a squeeze of lemon, salt and pepper, a few slices of lox, pickled red onion, EBTB chickpeas, capers, and fresh dill. Serve and enjoy!
