Let’s be honest—guacamole is already a classic, crowd-pleasing dip. But this chunky guacamole? It’s next-level.
I love dips. They’re addictive, delicious, and simple to make. Plus, they’re perfect for any gathering. Whether it’s game day, a casual get-together, or just a snack craving, this guacamole will steal the show. With the Super Bowl just around the corner, this should absolutely be on your table!
Here’s why you’ll love it:
- It tastes like the kind of guacamole you’d find at your favorite restaurant—fresh, flavorful, and just right.
- It doesn’t require a ton of ingredients, but the right mix of herbs and spices makes all the difference.
- Serve it with your favorite type of chips or even veggie sticks, and watch it disappear.
For this recipe, I used just a handful of ingredients: ripe avocados, red onion, chopped fresh parsley, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, olive oil, and a squeeze of lime juice. The combination is simple yet winning.
I am not a big fan of cilantro, but if you love cilantro you can most definitely replace parsley with it.
Anyway, even my kids loved it, which is a big deal! My oldest one has been always a bit picky food eater so when he said it was good, I trusted his judgment. To be perfectly honest, I wouldn’t change a thing about this recipe—it’s that good. Give it a try, and you’ll see what I mean.
