Buffalo Guacamole | Perfect as an Appetizer

Speaking of avocados, I made you something evil with them. And delicious. And easy. And creamy. And garlicky. And smokey. Because the super bowl is just around the corner…or so I hear. And because I’m a guacamole lover, not a hater. This recipe is my go-to guacamole recipe but on crack.

I added bacon, blue cheese, and hot sauce to this version and created something ri-donk-ulous. People *will* go crazy for this guac because it’s different than regular guacamole but just as addicting.

Main Ingredients Needed

Next time you’re at the store looking for guac ingredients look for these! Here’s what you need to make Buffalo Guacamole:

• Bacon – everything is always better with bacon. Instead of cooking strips and crumbling you could always use store-bought Bacon Bits.
• Avocados – make sure they are ripe, otherwise, they won’t mash very well.
• Lime Juice – a classic tart addition to guacamole.
• Garlic – for flavor! Grated so no one gets a huge bite of garlic.
• Salt + Pepper – season to taste.
• Cilantro – used as a garnish and is totally optional if you hate the taste.
• Blue Cheese – you could also use feta or goat cheese if you don’t like blue cheese.
• Hot Sauce – I used Frank’s Red Hot sauce, but you could use whatever hot sauce you have and/or like best.

Love Buffalo flavor? Me too, I actually craved it when I was pregnant with my second. So here are a couple more recipes you should definitely try: Buffalo Chicken Fries, Buffalo Deviled Eggs, Buffalo Chicken Pasta, and Buffalo Chicken Mac and Cheese.
