Smoked Salmon Bruschetta

lazyme's Note:

This variation on bagels, lox and cream cheese can be served as a morning delicacy or for brunch. From The Best 50 Bruschetta Recipes by Dona Z. Meilach. I haven't tried this yet, but I love bagels and lox. I'll probably add some capers to this when I try it too.
