Grilled Chicken Bagelwich with Bacon-Scallion Cream Cheese

This is a great way to use leftover grilled rosemary chicken; the arugula salad is also great on its own. You can use any remaining bacon-scallion cream cheese as a bagel spread. This recipe comes from the Rachel Ray magazine.

6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
1- 8oz. pkg. cream cheese, room temp.
1/4 cup toasted, chopped walnuts
3 scallions, chopped

2 pieces of leftover grilled chicken, split horizontally
4 bagels

4 T EVOO
juice of 1/2 lemon
1 T white wine vinegar
2 t Dijon
2 t honey
1/2 honeycrisp apple sliced thinly
1 rib of celery, sliced thinly
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1- 5 oz. package of arugula

Gently mix the bacon, cream cheese, walnuts and scallions. Mix all the dressing ingredients together and lightly toss the arugula, apple, celery and onion with dressing to taste. Spread the bagels with cream cheese mixture and top with the salad mixture. Arrange the chicken on top of that and enjoy!
