    Veggie Rolls with Avocado Hummus

    Vegan Veggie Rolls with Avocado Hummus - makes the perfect appetizer or starter that's healthy and fun! Fresh, crunchy veggies with a light and creamy avocado hummus. Flavorful, unique and something everyone can enjoy! From The Glowing Fridge.

    For our Christmas Eve family party this year, I offered to bring a vegan appetizer – one that everyone would want to eat and not just stare at.

    Pinterest is my best friend when I need ideas and inspiration because for some reason, vegan appetizers always seem the hardest. You can do something super simple like a hummus and veggie tray (but I think everyone gets tired of that) or something more extravagant with fake vegan cheese that people might not like.

    So after searching and pinning for a while, I came across a few variations of veggie rolls and decided to create zucchini veggie rolls smeared with avocado hummus and rolled up with fresh cucumber, crunchy carrots, sweet red bell peppers, beautiful radishes and cleansing cilantro. 

    YUMTOWN.

    These Veggie Rolls with Avocado Hummus are crunchy, healthy, fun and delicious! Something unique and different that I think most people would be willing to try – vegan or not. 

    There’s plenty of leftover avocado hummus for more dipping and snacking too, depending on how many rolls you want to make which, by the way, is amazingly creamy and flavorful – unlike any hummus I’ve ever tried.

    It’s smooth and lusciously fluffy with a whipped type texture.

    Avocado hummus is where it’s at.

    Made with cannellini beans, arugula, ripe avocado, cilantro, fresh lemon juice, garlic and a small piece of (optional) jalape?o, you have a light avocado hummus spread that’s perfect as a snack with crackers or for dipping these veggie rolls in.

    Preparing the rolls is fairly easy – the longest part is having to chop all the veggies but once that part is done, it goes pretty quick. I used toothpicks to keep the veggie rolls from falling apart but the avocado hummus actually does a great job at keeping them together so toothpicks are optional – especially if you lay them flat.

    The rolls can be a bit messy to eat (and to make!) but they’re so worth it, I promise. I love how colorful they are orange, red, pink and green but you can use any veggie you like! The pieces of zucchini have to be really thin for them to roll properly. For this I used one of the slicing blades on my spiralizer. I think a julienne peeler would work too, or a knife if you are a super skilled ninja.

    First, make the avocado hummus, then chop all the veggies.

    Next, smear a spoonful of hummus on a VERY thin piece of zucchini. Lay assorted veggies close together at one end.

    Lastly, gently roll it up and finish it off with a toothpick!

    Did your hair stop growing? Mine was stuck at the Did your hair stop growing?

Mine was stuck at the same length too for a while. But now I know your scalp is an extension of your skin and needs to be nourished and taken care of in order for healthy hair growth. The scalp ages 6x faster than the skin on your face 🤯 it needs love and care, too. Especially if you want length and strength.

My hair oil is unique and made of different botanicals, antioxidants, omegas and nutrients your scalp is craving. If your hair is struggling but you eat healthy, you may want to consider a hair oil to fill in the gaps. I’ve noticed new thickness and growth from it being nourished and fed nutrients from within. The SHINE is the most surprising part!!! It’s honestly jaw-dropping. It keeps getting better because it’s a LIQUID VITAMIN for all hair types.
 
Figuring out the right custom plan for you is key. I want to help customize a plan for you because everyone should experience these results.

And definitely my dream come true to be home with her all day. Never missing her much needed cuddle moments. I need her just as much as she needs me. Nothing else matters, really. I don’t need to be a girl boss or CEO of a company that separates us all day. I’m a mommy first and I sell shampoo, second. It’s actually the best of both worlds because I get to raise her and also have an income of my own.

If you’ve been yearning for something like this, there’s no better time. The holidays are coming!!!

There will always be some new trend or way to make money online. But are they sustainable? Or just a way to make a quick buck? One thing we all have in common is we all want to build a long-term sustainable business to make an income from home! We all sell shampoo, we all want different things for our families and we all took a leap of faith in starting our beauty businesses. And we all started somewhere. Instead of chasing the newest ways to make money, it’s so much more authentic to share something you love and use daily 👄🧴🫧🧖‍♀️

You guys. This is a dream come true. Getting better hair (completely frizz free 🙂) and making an income. I love what I do and the best part is it’s all from my phone and with my baby by my side. No daycare or nanny, it’s all from my phone. Now you do have to put in time and work for it to work, but it’s such a blessing. I’m so grateful every single day.

If you love beauty products and have a go-getter attitude, we need to talk!! I want to teach you how to do this.
