ROASTED GARLIC AND BACON GUACAMOLE
An incredible twist on Guacamole with crispy bacon and roasted garlic!
Ingredients
- 1 head of garlic
- Olive Oil
- 3 strips bacon
- 2 Tablespoons minced red onion
- 3 avocados, seeded
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
- Juice of 1 Lime
- 1 roasted red pepper, chopped
- 1/2 cup cilantro, roughly chopped
- Salt to taste
Directions
- Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Slice off the top of the garlic head, place it in the center of a piece of tinfoil, drizzle with olive oil, wrap, and place in the oven for 45-50 minutes. When done, remove from the oven and unwrap to cool.
- While the garlic is roasting, roughly chop your bacon, and cook in a skillet until crisp.
- When the bacon is almost done, add in the minced red onion and cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a medium sized bowl, toss in the avocados and squeeze in all of the roasted garlic. (Should be a soft consistency) Add the lime juice and cayenne. Mash together roughly.
- Stir in the bacon and onion mixture, as well as the chopped roasted red pepper, and cilantro.
- Add salt to taste. (It doesn’t need much at all!)
