Anytime Rick Bayless makes his way to town for an event, I do whatever I can to make it. I love listening to his expertise and always pick up tidbits of information about cooking when I see him. He recently hosted a fun event in Trinity Groves with Negra Modelo. It was a fun night full of delicious beer and food paired to Negra Modelo’s smooth taste. With an endless amount of food prepared by Chef Bayless and beer, how could the night get any better?
Chef Rick Bayless made his amazing guacamole recipe that is one of my favorites! Guacamole is something that I make often at my house for many reasons. It’s easy, filling, full of flavor and everybody loves it! It doesn’t require tons of work and in my opinion, it’s a really hard recipe to mess up.
After a few Negra Modelo beers and fun in the kitchen, I wanted to share my ever so delicious recipe for Guacamole. It’s a recipe that you’ll want to bookmark for later!
This recipe is perfect for 2-3 people depending how hungry your guests are (or how delicious it turns out). Grab 2 avocados and slice them down the middle. Pull out the seed and trash. Scoop out all of the avocado and place in a mixing bowl. Chop approximately a 4 teaspoons of red onion, a handful of cilantro and 1 jalapeno. Throw into the mixing bowl with the avocado. Mix everything together gently. I prefer my guacamole chunky so if you’re like me, mix gently. Chop up a small tomato and mix in. Add a dash of salt and the squeeze of a lime. The fun part is when you get to taste test the guacamole. The more you make it, the easier it becomes. I know I like mine a little on the saltier side so I add extra salt. Remember that you can always add salt but you can never take it away so it’s much easier to add more later than ruining your whole bowl of guac. To add some extra flair (and awesomeness), I add bacon sprinkles as a finishing touch.

I absolutely love homemade guac. It is the BEST!
YUM! I love guacamole! In fact, I just devoured some yesterday!
I LOVE that you keep it chunky! I don’t like super smooth guac. It just doesn’t do it for me.
I’ve only ever tried guacamole once and I wasn’t a big fan but my kiddos? Love it so I will have to give this a try!
How cute you made the beer bottles into decorative pieces! I love a good guac recipe so thanks for sharing!
I love the bacon sprinkles as a finishing touch. This sounds like a great guac recipe!
I could eat guacamole on just about everything (except ice cream maybe?). This is a super easy recipe.
I am always looking for new guacamole recipes! These one sounds super tasty!
Yum! I love a chunky guac recipe! I will have to try yours.
Nothing beats homemade guac. The Mexican restaurant charges $8 and they make it right at the table. Expensive, but so worth it!
Guacmole is the best. We always have avocados in the house just in case for guac. 🙂
If you’re going to make a guacamole, it definitely doesn’t hurt to use a Rick Bayless recipe! I loved him on Top Chef Masters!
I love me some guacamole! Homemade is the best!
I love making my own homemade guacamole. Avocados are one of my favorite foods. I have made guac with eggs, with peas, and with chickpeas. My favorite though is to just smash up a fresh avocado with lemon juice, salt and pepper with a dash of garlic.
I was looking through my Pinterest board for inspiration and realized almost every recipe in there has avocado in it. I’m not surprised because I adore it. Now I need to pin this too!
I have never tried Negra Modelo before. I will have to try the Guacamole recipe for my movie night.
I bet I would enjoy that bit of crunch added to the guacamole. One of those Negra Modelos would be pretty great right now!
I am going to try this. I like chunky also
That is the perfect combo! Guac is my favorite thing to make and eat! I love the adding of the bacon sprinkles to your recipe.
