Summer Recreates Chris Pratt’s Cucumber Egg Rolls #WHATSMYSNACK

?>

I’m just a girl who loves food, making food and getting inspired by food I see on social media—especially when the food is being eaten by my favorite hero, the adorkably charming Chris Pratt. He has been posting his snacks on Instagram in a funny, tortured cause he has to get in shape kind of way, which I of course couldn’t help but watch. If you guys are not familiar with his little #WHATSMYSNACK videos then you need to go watch them like now. I’ll wait.

Now that you are all caught up with what I am talking about, the snacks he is posting actually look pretty tasty. I was drawn to the cucumber egg roll. Now I have no real idea what is in his but I figured I could recreate a version and make my own #WHATSMYSNACK.

Without further ado… Here is my Chris Pratt-inspired cucumber egg roll snack.

Cucumber Egg Roll

1 cucumber

1/2 bell pepper 

2 hard boiled eggs

1/2 avocado

Trader Joe’s Hot & Sweet Jalapeños

salt

pepper

paprika

garlic powder

Peel the hardboiled eggs and chop them up. Put them in a bowl. Add the avocado and the seasoning and mash it together. add the diced jalapeño and mix well.

Now its time to slice your cucumber as thin as you can. I used a mandolin. You can also use a veggie peeler or if you have super duper knife skills go ahead and slice them.

Julienne the bell pepper.

Take a strip of the cucumber, add a spoonful of your egg mixture, a few slices of bell pepper (place all of this towards the top of the cucumber slice) and roll it up. Stick a toothpick in it and boom, you’ve got a yummy healthy snack. Oh—and a total connection to Starlord himself.

Post your pics of your cucumber egg rolls, and don’t forget to tag @girlsonfoodblog, @summerhairabedian and cutie @prattprattpratt with the hashtag #WHATSMYSNACK!

Later, my healthy nerds.

Summer

I am an actress, writer, comedian (I use that term very loosely) who is used to spending my nights after a show at the local pub or dive bar. My love for anything nacho and pizza related was apparent to everyone, including my waistline. As an actress your image is important, it is after all part of the job. realizing that my love affair with all the foods needed to come to an end I decided to try and cook my favorites but in a healthier more waistline friendly way. That is when I discovered my new passion, cooking. I have been creating concoctions in my kitchen for over a year now and I have lost 45lbs. I am a happier, healthier version of myself. I still go out after my shows but now with all of my new food knowledge I know how to order. I still catch a glimpse here and there of my forbidden nacho, pizza love, I smile and think fondly of the time we spent together. I can’t wait to share with you my healthy takes on the not so healthy!
