Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 whole ripe avocados
- 6 slices bacon
- 0.5 cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes (optional)
Instructions
Begin by cooking the bacon: Heat a skillet over medium heat and cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side. Transfer the cooked bacon to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease. Once cooled, chop the bacon into small pieces and set aside.
Cut the avocados in half, remove the pits, and scoop the flesh into a mixing bowl. Mash the avocado with a fork until smooth but slightly chunky, depending on your texture preference.
Add the sour cream, lime juice, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and ground black pepper to the mashed avocados. Stir well to combine.
Fold in the chopped bacon, cilantro, and optional cherry tomatoes if using. Mix gently to maintain the texture of the ingredients.
Taste the guacamole and adjust the seasoning with additional salt or lime juice, if needed.
Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and garnish with a sprinkle of chopped bacon and cilantro for presentation.
Serve immediately with tortilla chips, vegetable sticks, or crackers. For the best flavor, enjoy fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 day.
