In a blender, combine 1 to 2 ripe avocados, 1/4 cup of hemp seeds, 1/4 cup of freshly squeezed lemon juice, a small handful of basil, and a little green onion.

3

Blend the ingredients until smooth to create an avocado spread that resembles basil guacamole.

4

Spread the avocado mixture onto the cucumber slices using a spatula, being careful not to overfill.

5

Julienne some carrots and zucchini, then place them on one end of the cucumber slice along with sliced red and yellow bell pepper and a sprig of cilantro.

6

Tuck the filling under the cucumber slice and roll it up tightly.

7

Secure the roll with a toothpick and plate it.

8

Repeat the process to make additional rolls as desired.
