Crazy Guacamole
Well, I’m almost there guys. I’m 38 weeks pregnant and am officially uncomfortable and ready for this little girl to arrive. And unlike with Madeline, I’m nowhere near prepared with the blog this time around! I wanted to give you a heads up that for the next 6 weeks or so, I’ll probably post just one day a week on Mondays. While I would love to keep posting twice, I just don’t have it together! I promise it’s only temporary though until we get back into the swing of things and adjust to life with two kids. I hope you are also following me on Facebook, Pinterest, and Instagram as I will also be posting updates there too!
Okay, enough of that, it’s time to talk about guacamole, which is obviously WAY more important. Move over regular guacamole. There’s a new guacamole in town and it is CrAzY! And by crazy, I mean loaded with goodness!
I heart guacamole. I heart it so much. I can’t even stand it. It’s one of the few foods I think I could eat over and over and not get sick of it. And believe me, that’s saying a lot for me because I tend to get sick of things really quickly. You can never put enough of it on my food.
I decided to kick regular guac into something even more amazing. This loaded guacamole has corn and tomatoes and extra jalapeno! I love the added crunch and texture from the corn and tomatoes. I recommend using fresh corn if you can find it, but canned works fine too! I also like adding a good amount of jalapeno too, but if heat isn’t your thing you can use less!
Crazy Guacamole
This loaded guacamole has corn, tomatoes, and jalapeño!
Ingredients
- 2 ripe avocados
- 1/4 cup diced red onion
- 1 medium jalapeño pepper, minced (remove seeds)
- 2/3 cup fresh corn kernels (or canned)
- 1/2 cup cherry tomatoes, quartered
- 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh chopped cilantro
- 1 1/2 to 2 limes, juiced
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (or to taste)
- 1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
Instructions
- Slice each avocado in half. Remove the pit. With a knife, score each half of the avocados about 3-4 times lengthwise and then again 3-4 times widthwise. Take a spoon and scoop out the avocado into a bowl.
- Fold in the remaining ingredients with the avocado. If you want a chunkier guacamole, fold in gently to avoid overly mashing the avocados. Chill for 30 minutes and serve with your favorite chips or on top of tacos!

loved the chunkiness to the regular guacamole- nice
Thank you! I love the chunkiness as well!
Your recipe sounds almost exactly like the one I make except for the corn. Interesting addition and probably delicious.
Thanks, Anita! The corn works really well with this!

Ham, cherry tomatoes, jalapeños and corn – Now that is a crazy concoction but an extremely delicious one! :)

I love that you made a sassier guac–much more color and a nice kick to cut through the richness. Fabulous!
Thanks! It certainly is sassier!
Love guacamole that is loaded!! This looks incredible!
Thanks, Jessica! I love it too!
I’m making this .. and I’m saying that purely based upon the pictures. Ahhh I WANT!
Hehe, go for it! You won’t be sorry!
If by “crazy” you mean crazy delicious, then yes, this is! I love that this isn’t the same old boring guac; the corn and tomatoes bring something fresh and brigth! Love the colors too.
It is crazy delicious!!! I loved kicking it up!
Utter madness ;-). Love this chunky fullsome version of guac. Never mind dip, it’s a whole meal in a bowl. Looks gorgeous too!
Thanks, Kelly! I would totally make a full dinner out of this guac!
Oh what I wouldn’t give to have this as a snack right now!
Thanks, Erin! I wish I had some right now!
Haha you bet this guacamole kicks butt!
Cheers

It sure does!
I heart guac so much too..so much so that I almost went out to buy some tonight for dinner but instead went and got Thai food, complete opposite huh? This looks so hearty and I love how much you stuffed into this guac!!
Haha, yes, but Thai food is so good too!!
Crazy Guac … Where you been all my life?
Here it is! lol
I am not over regular guacamole, I am not over ANY guacamole. Love the stuff in every shape and form, even CRAZY!
Thanks, Carolyn! I love it too!
Your guac really is crazy! I love how it’s loaded with fresh, crisp ingredients for all sorts of flavors and textures! I want this for breakfast. Now. I would eat this guacamole all day long! :) Have a great weekend!!
Thanks, Julia! I really loved the corn in this!
I’d say it’s crazy-good guacamole! I prepare my guac similarly but I’ve never added cooked corn–great idea!
Thanks, Jean! It’s so good!

Thank you! :)
So, so gorgeous. You make me want to eat
Is that a bad thing?! :)
Love this! I could eat this guacamole as a meal and feel less guilty about it than I usually do! :)
I could totally eat it as a meal too!
I LOVE regular guacamole so I can’t wait to give this version a try! Looks delicious! :)
Thanks, Christina! I hope you like it!
I don’t think I ever get enough guacamole, especially in the summer. I love the extra kick in yours!
Me too!! Never enough!
Me too, I love guacamole and no one can stop me once I’m spotted with guacamole. =) I love the corn in here. I’ve never made it and I MUST try this very soon. Luckily my kids are big fan of guacamole and we can easily finish just three of us before my husband even comes home! Tee hee.
Thanks, Nami! It’s pretty easy to make!
I am right there with you on the guacamole. I eat avocados for dinner when I am lazy. It is always so much better when I put some effort into making guacamole. My husband and I always argue over the last scoop and then I still use my finger to get every last bit.
Thanks, Emily! I eat them for lunch too, with a little salt! Luckily, my husband just dips chips in it and doesn’t really like to scoop it out with the chip. Totally fine by me!
Okay now I need to make a bowl ASAP. This baby really is packed with fun goodies! I usually just have avocado and tomato in mine!
Thanks, girl! The corn is a great addition!
I too heart guacamole! Only I’m the only person in my family who eats it, so I don’t make it very often. When I do I can sit and eat the entire bowl!!
I can easily eat a whole bowl too!
That looks FAB! I am a huge guac fan so I will definitely have to try it out! Great recipe :)
Thanks, Stephanie! I hope you enjoy it!
I love avocados in any way, shape, or form. Like you, guac is my favorite. Great new twist on it!
Thanks, Tiffany, I love them too!
I heart guacamole too. I make it so often in our home. Love your version, will have to try it next!
Thanks, Beth Michelle! I make it once a week these days!
seriously I can live on guacamole…
This looks fantastic!!
I always have avocados and yes I am trying this next time…
Thanks, Reem! I can live on it too!
This is my kind of guac! I would eat it as a meal with chips and call it a day!
Thanks, girl! I could eat it as a meal too and would be so happy!
