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.
    Mixing the avocados and cream cheese.
  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!
