Servings: 4

Ingredients
  

  • 1 whole head garlic
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 can 15 oz cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 tbsp plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp fine salt for spread
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 cup finely shredded red cabbage
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar
  • 1/4 tsp fine salt for cabbage
  • 4 rye bagels split
  • 1 lb thinly sliced ready-to-eat roast beef

Method
 

  1. Heat oven to 400°F. Cut garlic top to expose cloves; drizzle with oil and wrap in foil. Roast 40 to 45 minutes until soft; cool 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, toss cabbage with vinegar, sugar, and its salt. Rest 20 minutes, turning once; drain thoroughly and squeeze lightly.
  3. Squeeze garlic into a food processor. Add beans, yogurt, lemon juice, spread salt, and pepper; blend smooth, scraping as needed.
  4. Broil only cut bagel faces 1 to 2 minutes; cool. Spread garlic-bean mixture evenly on both cut faces.
  5. Loosely fold beef onto four bottoms; divide drained cabbage over it. Close, halve, and serve cold; refrigerate unused sandwiches.
