Game Day Guacamole

So I had all of these plans to post a sweet, lemony recipe today. As I finished the recipe, I remembered that the Super Bowl is this weekend! Therefore, a party recipe is in order! So I whipped up this guacamole that is a feast for your taste buds!

Let me just say that I heart guacamole. I heart it a whole, whole, whole lot...


I usually don't add red onions or tomatoes to my guacamole, but I saw Ree make it on her show last weekend and she made it look so good! So I thought I would try it out...


I confess that I ate that ENTIRE bowl after I photographed it. So good!


Is your mouth watering? Mines is and I'm not even hungry right now... Here is what you need and what to do:

3 Avocados, diced
2 Tomatoes, seeded and diced
1/2 of a large red onion, finely diced
Cilantro, to taste
1 jalapeno, seeded and diced (if you like it hot!)
Juice of 1 lime
Salt to taste

In a large bowl, combine the tomatoes, onion, cilantro, jalapeno, lime juice and salt. Then add the avocado and stir. I like chunky guacamole, so I don't mash the avocados. But feel free to mash them up a bit with a fork if you like.

If you are making this a little ahead of time, place plastic wrap directly on top of the guacamole (not just on the bowl, but right on top of the guacamole) and store it in the fridge- but only for maybe a day. It's best if it's devoured a few hours after you make it. This makes about 6 servings.

Are you attending a Super Bowl party??

Linked up with Tasty Tuesdays!

P.S. I will share the sweet, lemony recipe next week!

  2. Tiffany, this looks soooo good. How bad is it that I am craving guacamole at 7:30am?? We always go to our good friends house but my husband wants to have them over this year so I might be needing this recipe, I could easily make a meal out of guacamole

  5. I LOVE a good guac. I like to add cumin and chili flakes to mine too to give it even more kick. I pretty much eat 1/2 an avocado a day mixed into some form of guac, so girl you are talking my language! ;)

  9. Yes please I want this!! One thing I really like about Tasty Tuesday's is that I kind of "eat" through everybody's images, wish I could recreate them all (this bloody island has nothing!), but I still enjoy them!
