What To Serve With It

Ever wondered what pairs perfectly with freshly made guacamole? I’ve found tortilla chips are a classic choice, but there’s so much more to explore.

I love slicing up fresh veggies like carrot sticks, cucumber slices, or bell peppers for a crunchy, healthy alternative.

For something heartier, try spreading it on toast or using it as a topping for tacos or grilled chicken.

I even enjoy pairing it with quesadillas or nachos for a comforting meal.

And don’t forget about pairing it with a margarita—it’s a match made in heaven.

Experiment with your favorites, and you’ll find endless combinations to enjoy!
