Pineapple Guacamole

//#ad This post is brought to you by Bare Snacks, but all words and eats are my own. Thanks for supporting the sponsors that keep me hungry!

Easy guacamole with plenty of avocado and a sweet pineapple finish! Serve as a fun summer appetizer or side for dipping or a spread for the main meal.

I may be in the process of moving, but I refuse to miss a taco Tuesday.

Which is really just a weekly excuse to make guacamole. 

How do you make tacos at your house?

Every Tuesday I count the squishy avocados and lay them on the counter for M to open and smash. 

He’s unofficially the resident in-house guacamole maker.

He makes the guacamole while I prepare the fajita veggies and black bean filling. 

If you’re looking for an excuse to make guacamole this summer, try this Pineapple Guacamole!

It’s adapted from the stuff I enjoy with M weekly with the addition of a fruity flair. 

This minimalist guacamole is made with all of your tried and trues plus the addition of pineapple chips for sweetness and crunch!

Here’s what you need:

• avocados
• lime
• green onion
• Roma tomato
• Himalayan sea salt
• Bare Snacks Pineapple Chips

That’s it!

If you’ve made guacamole before, you know it’s pretty straight forward.

Whenever M makes it, I comment how good it is, dipping chips in before he’s done adding salt and lime. 

“It’s not rocket science,” he’ll say matter-of-factly, “You can’t go wrong with avocados”.

Truth.

First, smash the avocado in a large mixing bowl.

I usually use 2 or 3 avocados, depending on how many I have available and how big they are.

For the best texture, I recommend leaving some larger chunks remaining.

Next, start adding in the mix-is.

Squeeze in the lime and the green onion, diced tomato, and Himalayan sea salt. 

Feel free to customize the recipe as needed, omitting the tomato if you don’t have one available. 

Sometimes I substitute the white onion for green onion, but I find the green onion really adds something special! 

Add Himalayan sea salt and mix everything well. 

At this point, I recommend tasting the guacamole and adding more lime for acidity, more salt for saltiness, and more tomato for intrigue.

Now, here’s where our guac gets groovy. 

I crushed Bare Snacks Pineapple Chips in this guacamole for a fruity and crunchy twist. 

These pineapple crisps really are best. 

They taste like summer and are totally gluten-free, fat-free, and preservative-free without any added oils or sugars*. (Not a low calorie food. See nutrition information for calorie and sugar content.)

They’re great to add to your oatmeal, yogurt, or trail mix.

My newest obsession is adding them to guacamole!

Add in the crushed pineapple chips on top of the guacamole and style it as a fun topper. 

You can also mix them in for more of an integrated crunch. 

Not ready to mix pineapple chips into your guacamole? 

At least try dipping the pineapple chips in instead of tortilla chips for that addicting mix of salty and sweet. 

When you’re done dipping, stash your pineapple guacamole in the fridge for 2 to 3 days. 

Enjoy this Pineapple Guacamole as an appetizer, snack, or condiment for your main meal. 

I love mine on tacos, burritos, taco salad, and with tortilla (or more pineapple!) chips. 

Because this guac is mildly sweet, it’s great to pair with spicy foods. 

Wait to mix in the pineapple chips until just before serving to ensure they don’t get soggy.

If you plan to have leftovers, don’t mix the pineapple chips into the part you’re saving!

Enjoy!
