How To Make

(More detailed instructions in recipe card below.)

You’ll want 3 ripe avocados for this Jalapeno Popper Guacamole.

  1. To give the guacamole that creamy jalapeno popper flavor, mix 2 ounces of softened cream cheese with the avocado.
  2. Next, add 2 tablespoons of lime juice and salt and pepper to taste. I find the amount of lime juice in guacamole is totally a matter of taste. So you may want to add a little more if you like the lime flavor to really pop.
    Lime juice added.
  3. Next stir in diced jalapeno, shredded cheddar cheese, and 4 slices of bacon that have been cooked and crumbled.
    Jalapenos, cheddar cheese and bacon added.

    Open up a bag of tortilla chips and get ready to dig in. This is one delicious guacamole. So creamy, salty, spicy, and good!

    Storage

    Avocados oxidize and turn brown when exposed to air. To store guacamole, press plastic wrap directly on the surface of the guacamole and refrigerate.
