Bacon Guacamole
Two of my favorite foods are bacon and guacamole so why wouldn’t I try to put them together? Now this isn’t a weird food pairing by any means but it definitely is one that you’re going to want to try!
This is by far the simplest and most delicious guacamole recipe you’ll ever eat. But I have to warn you, once you go homemade you can’t go back! Eating store bought guacamole just isn’t the same anymore, I’m always comparing it to my homemade recipe!
You’ll want to take this guacamole to every tailgate, barbecue, and party you attend this summer! Plus it has extremely simple ingredients and is so easy to make. I’ve had friends and family ask for this recipe for a while now so I finally put pen to paper so that you too can impress the masses with how delicious and easy homemade guacamole can really be!
You can make this recipe with or without the bacon depending on your preference! I have omitted the bacon plenty of times and it is still a classic delicious guacamole recipe! You can also omit the garlic/onions if you are sensitive to them it will just have a little less of a traditional guacamole flavor.
When picking my ingredients I always make sure my bacon is sugar free! Sugar is often added to bacon for flavor and as a preservative and it’s unnecessary. Thus sugar free bacon is always the way to go!
