Here’s Your Game Day Guacamole Recipe!

It’s just about time for the Big Game, and you MUST have guac for your party, right?! Avocado lovers, rejoice! We’ve got the perfect recipe to impress your friends with your guac-making skills!

We asked Chef Michael C. Brown of San Diego’s newest elevated Mexican eatery, Jalisco Cantina, to share his crowd-pleasing guac recipe so we can recreate it at home and take all the credit! Chef Brown is know for creating tasty twists on traditional Mexican fare, so you can expect this guac to stand out from the crowd.

Turn up the heat with a Spicy Shrimp Guacamole, a crave-worthy crowd-pleaser that’s easy to make at home!
