Today is National Bagel Day and National Pizza Day. Or as I call it, "New Jersey Food Day". Yes, New York food, too, but I grew up in New Jersey so that's my association.

On this hallowed day, I thought I would remind you of some of the brilliant relevant recipes I've posted around the web.

1. Homemade bagels.

2. Homemade cream cheese.

Possibly even more impressive than making your own bagels? DIY cream cheese. After all, that's something you buy, not make, right? It's awesome. Do it. Recipe here.

3. Homemade bagel balls.

6. Gluten-free pizza on a squash crust
