If you’re serious about guac (AND I AM), then crumble in some bacon. Bacon bits or fresh, whatever. (Although I have lost my ability to eat bacon bits some. I so prefer fresh.) There are so many good guac add-ins to try, but bacon is one of my favorites. Other ideas are basil, corn, mango, black bean, pomegranate, pistachio, chipotle peppers, pineapple, or mint. Or just keep it at that simple, good, classic guac. We really like this one.
