I am embarrassed to admit this to you all… but I used to be one of those weirdos that didn’t like guacamole. There, I said it and it’s out. I was repulsed by the thought of it as a kid and even into high school and college. But, then a friend made this Garlicky Guacamole recipe. I took the first bite and was sold! No turning back for this girl! I think the garlic flavor in this recipe is what drew me in. I’ve always loved garlic in any recipe so I should’ve known the little anti inflammatory ingredient could turn me into a fan of pretty much anything!
Since I’ve been turned onto guacamole, I’m known by my friends and family to go to Mexican restaurants and just order a taco and guac or a taco and queso as my meal. It’s really all I need to be a happy camper! Ok, and a margarita doesn’t hurt either! So, even if you don’t think you like guacamole, I’m going to dare you to try this recipe and give it another whirl!
With all kinds of big sporting events happening (Masters, Superbowl, March Madness, and even just fun game nights with friends!), I figured you could use this recipe to be the hit of the party!
And aside from parties, this is my GO-TO beach day snack! Nothing quite beats sand between your toes, the ocean in the background, a cold beer or drink in hand, and lots of snacking on chips and guac! MMMM!!!
How To Serve The Garlicky Guacamole:
- Serve as a topper for tacos or nachos, soups, shredded chicken, salad, etc

- Serve as shown here straight up with chips or for a Whole 30 or Paleo option with bell pepper strips
