Holy Guacamole Recipe

Sommer’s Recipe Notes

Guacamole is one of my go-to appetizers to take to parties, but honestly, it’s perfect for enjoying any day of the week! With just a handful of fresh ingredients—ripe avocados, zesty lime juice, diced tomatoes, and a hint of red onion—you get a dip that’s creamy, tangy, and downright irresistible. The lime brings brightness, the onion adds a slight crunch, and the tomatoes provide a burst of freshness. It’s everything you love about guacamole, made in minutes!

My family loves this easy Holy Guacamole Recipe! We dollop it on top of salads and Mexican favorites. We serve it with cocktails and chips on Friday afternoon. We even make our easy guacamole recipe with breakfast scrambles and warm tortillas on the weekends. This guacamole dip is so versatile and tastes good on basically anything.

Storage Notes

• Storing Leftovers – Place leftover guacamole in an airtight container and top with lemon to avoid browning. Store in the fridge for up to 2 days.

Creamy, zesty guacamole is a versatile dish that pairs perfectly with a variety of snacks and meals!

Serve it as a classic dip with crunchy tortilla chips, crispy pita chips, or fresh-cut veggies like carrots, celery, and bell peppers. Feeling fancy? Pair it with baked sweet potato wedges or smear it on crostini for a sophisticated bite. Guacamole is also a taco night essential —spoon it onto your tacos or even burritos, nachos, burrito bowl or enchiladas for a flavorful kick.

Hosting a party? Add it to your appetizer spread alongside dishes like loaded potato skins, mini quesadillas, or cheesy jalapeño poppers. And for breakfast, try it as a topping for avocado toast, scrambled eggs, or breakfast burritos!
