Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe·Leave a Review

A super flavorful and fresh guacamole recipe, made with tons of fresh garlic and lime juice, served with crispy bacon.

A red, orange, and white striped bowl filled to the brim with fresh, creamy guacamole, topped with crispy bacon and a cilantro leaf.

If you love garlic, and you love guacamole, then you will love this recipe! This guac does not have cilantro in it as guacamole traditionally does -- Jon leaves it out because he likes me, and I don’t like cilantro.

This recipe is low carb, gluten-free, and there’s paleo approved, Whole30 compliant guacamole version. Guacamole is the great unifier -- bring it to your next keto gathering, share with friends, dip all the things. And I have a list of 50 low carb, gluten free snack ideas to use as dippers!

Jon’s guacamole recipe is just the start to the best low carb taco night ever. Serve it up alongside my Shredded Taco Pork, add some to my Warm Taco Salad, and enjoy with a Keto Blueberry Mojito. A keto fiesta for all!

Another way I like to enjoy this homemade guacamole recipe: as Bacon Guacamole Deviled Eggs

Description

This is serious the best guacamole recipe ever. While you can eat it right away, it is even better if you cover the top with cling wrap and let it sit in the fridge for 30 minutes for the flavors to come together.

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 6 large avocados, peeled and pitted
  • 4 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 small onion, grated
  • 1 medium tomato, seeded and chopped
  • ¼ cup Pickled Jalapenos, chopped (get the recipe here)
  • ½ cup chopped crispy bacon, optional
  • chopped fresh cilantro, optional

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, mash together the avocado, garlic, lime juice, salt and cayenne pepper.
  2. Using a microplane grater, grate the onion into the guacamole.
  3. Mix in the tomatoes and jalapeños.
  4. Mix in the bacon, or sprinkle across the top as a garnish, if using.

Notes

To make this recipe paleo and Whole30 compliant, omit the pickled jalapenos or swap with fresh jalapenos.

    86 the tomato. Likewise the jalapeno. Add 2 tsp cumin and 1/2 cup coarsely chopped cilantro. Double the P&L to 1/4 cup. NOW you have the best guacamole in the world. You're welcome. You could also sub some chipotle powder for the cayenne.

    I don't want to eat chips but this looks delicious! What would you "dip" in it?

      I like to dip sugar snap peas and carrots in it. I also like it on eggs.
