BACON GUACAMOLE

Bacon Guacamole is so easy to make and takes your guac to the next level with bacon.   You will never want to make it without bacon again!

HOW DO YOU BAKE BACON IN THE OVEN?

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.  Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and line the bacon in a single layer.  Bake for 15-20 minutes but start checking at 12 to get to the desired doneness. Once it is finished, transfer to a plate lined with a paper towel.

HOW DO I MAKE BACON GUACAMOLE?

• In a medium sized bowl add your chopped avocado, tomato, red onion, chopped cilantro and bacon.  Mix together until incorporated.  I like to mash the avocado a bit with the fork as I mix to make it have less chunks.
• Add in garlic powder, paprika, juice of one lime, and salt and pepper to taste.  Serve with chips.

This bacon guacamole will be gone almost as fast as you make it.  You are going to love the hidden bacon in each and every bite.  It really adds such amazing flavor to this guacamole and I promise that you will never make it without bacon again.  It is the perfect quick and easy side to take to a backyard BBQ or potluck and wil be a huge hit wherever it goes!
