I created this recipe to support World Jewish Relief's Big Bagel project by donating this bagel snake recipe to their supporters to use in their fund-raising events.

It is a fun way of serving bagels; quick and easy enough for children to help prepare. It is ideal for a special tea or a children's birthday party as you can make the snake as long as you like by using more bagels.

● Halve the bagels horizontally, and then cut each half down the centre to form a semi circle. Cut out two wedge shapes for the head and tail.
● Mix the ingredients for the toppings. Spread half the bagels with tuna and half with egg.
● Decorate the tuna topping with halved cherry tomatoes and the egg topping with strips of chives arranged in a criss-cross pattern.
● Arrange the bagels to form the body of a snake, then attach the head and tail to the snake's body.
● Use two slices of stuffed olive to form the eyes and cut out a forked tongue from the strip of sweet pepper.
