Looking for an alternative to classic guacamole? This bacon blue cheese guacamole is unabashedly full-flavored.
And it has bacon in it! (Which, of course, means this guac is definitely not for vegetarians.)
I know blue cheese is a little controversial. There are haters out there. You can have your traditional guacamole while those of us who love it dig into this one.
While I fully admit it’s not for everyone, fans of Roquefort and similar blue cheese will love the savory complexity the blue cheese adds to avocado. And the smoky bacon brings it all together.
It comes together quickly and makes a fabulous party snack.
It’s simple to make and a nice take for anyone who loves blue cheese and avocado!
Bacon Blue Cheese Guacamole
This nontraditional take on guacamole is perfect for blue cheese lovers. Enough said.
Ingredients

- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

- 2 strips of thick-cut bacon, cooked until crisp and crumbled

Instructions
- Scoop out the flesh of the avocado and add it to a medium mixing bowl and mash with a fork.

Garnish with reserved bacon and blue cheese. Eat with warm tortilla chips.
