GRILLED GUACAMOLE AND GRILLED QUESO DIP
In Mexico, charring vegetables such as corn, tomatoes, peppers and onions is a popular way to add a smokey flavor to salsas, soups, sauces and the like. We used that technique here for both the guacamole and queso. You can also make the rest of the queso on the side burner, if your grill has one. If not, be sure to set the saucepan over high enough heat on the grill so that the mixture simmers. Since queso doesn't reheat well, make it right before you want to serve it.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat.
- Place the jalapeños, onions, tomatoes, avocados and limes on a baking sheet and brush lightly with olive oil. Transfer the jalapeños, onions, tomatoes (cut-side down), avocados (cut-side down) and limes (cut-side down) to the grill. Grill the jalapeños and onions, turning occasionally, until charred and crisp-tender, 6 to 7 minutes. Grill the tomatoes, turning once, until charred and the skins have started to pull away, 3 to 4 minutes. Grill the avocados and limes just enough to mark them, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer each ingredient as it is ready to a cutting board and set aside until cool enough to handle. If your grill doesn't have a side burner, leave the grill on.
- Finely chop the jalapeños. Coarsely chop the onions. Remove the skins from the tomatoes (if some of the skin sticks, that's fine) and coarsely chop. Scoop the avocado into a medium bowl and coarsely mash with a fork. Squeeze in the juice from the grilled limes and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Add the cilantro and half of the jalapeños, onions and tomatoes and stir to combine. Set the guacamole aside.
- Increase the heat of the grill to high (or turn on the side burner). Place the cream, cream cheese and chili powder in a medium saucepan and cook on the grill, whisking, until smooth and bubbly, 2 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the Cheddar and Monterey Jack in handfuls, letting one melt before adding the next, until thick and smooth. Add the remaining jalapeños, onions and tomatoes and cook, stirring, until just heated through, about 30 seconds. Season with salt to taste. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve immediately with the guacamole and tortilla chips.
GRILLSIDE GUACAMOLE
This summery guacamole takes the "tableside" trend to a whole new place - the grill! Fresh avocados, sweet onions and other tasty veggies take on flavor from grilling, while a sprinkling of Mexican Cotija cheese gives this dish an even more delicious twist.

THE BEST GUACAMOLE
Simple ingredients in perfect proportion make a this dip a crowd-pleasing favorite for any event. We decided not to use tomato in ours -- it makes the guac watery -- and included both onion and garlic for extra zip. A healthy dose of fresh lime juice balances and brightens the flavors.

Steps:
- Put the diced onion into a small strainer and rinse under cold running water. Transfer to a small bowl and cover with 1 cup cold water. Stir in the vinegar and let sit for 10 minutes.
- Slice the avocados in half, remove the pits and scoop the flesh into a medium bowl. Pour the lime juice over the avocado. Using a fork or potato masher, mash the avocado until creamy with some chunks remaining. Drain the onions well and add to the bowl, along with the jalapeno, garlic, salt and cilantro. Stir to combine.
- Serve immediately with tortilla chips. Or press a piece of plastic wrap directly against the surface of the guacamole to prevent discoloration and refrigerate until ready to serve.
GRILLED GUACAMOLE
If you're a guacamole lover, try this fun grilled version that has a smoky flavor. The veggies tend to darken a bit when heated, so stir it gently to prevent further discoloration. -Lindsay Sprunk, Noblesville, Indiana

TABLESIDE GUACAMOLE
Indulge and impress your guests with the perfect guacamole made to order right at the table by their very own "Guacamoliere" (YOU!!!)... you'll be known as the guacamole expert who mixes the freshest ingredients right in front of their eyes!!! If you want to get real daring, have a shot of Tequila ready to add to the other ingredients. Have all the ingredients that need to be diced, minced, and chopped already prepared and ready in separate, pretty little bowls, along with a larger bowl to do the mixing. (TIP: You may want to practice with your family, before putting on the "show" in front of company. Once you have it perfected, your performance should only be a couple of minutes.)

Steps:
- Gather all the ingredients together on a small table or T.V. tray in front of your guests.
- Begin by slicing each avocado in half lengthwise with a medium-sized kitchen knife. Hold one avocado half in the palm of your hand with the pit facing up. Strike the avocado pit with the blade of the knife , twist the knife and pry out the pit; discard the pit. Score the flesh of the avocado with the knife into large dice cubes. Repeat with the other avocado halves with the pits, then score the remaining avocado halves in the same way.
- Using a large spoon, remove the flesh of the avocados from the skins to a large bowl. Discard the skins. Once all the avocado halves have been "peeled", gently mash using a fork and spoon. (Do NOT over-mash -- guacamole should have delicious lumps of avocado in each bite.).
- Slice the lime in half or quarter it and squeeze the juice over the mashed avocado. (Along with adding flavor, the lime juice helps preserve the color of the avocado.).
- Add the remaining, prepared ingredients and mix. (If you aren't making the guacamole tableside, but ahead, wait until just prior to serving to add the tomatoes.).
- Serve with tortilla chips or your favorite vegetables. Dip and Enjoy!

4.6/5 (5)Estimated Reading Time 5 minsCategory Side DishesPublished Mar 6, 2020
- Toast. Think avocado toast with a tangy twist. Spread that creamy guacamole generously onto your toast, top it with smoky bacon bits, and serve it with a side of over-easy eggs.
- Veggies. Guacamole is so rich and nutty, it gives anything you dip into it so much more flavor. If you want something healthier than the usual corn or tortilla chips, why not use vegetables as your guacamole vessel instead?
- Burger. Instead of the traditional burger dressings or boring old mayonnaise, go for a healthy and umami flavor by using guacamole. It is just as rich as mayo but has a nuttier flavor and fewer calories.
- French Fries. Say goodbye to ketchup for now, because French fries and guacamole make a wonderful partnership. Picture the crisp and tender spuds dunked in a rich and creamy dip and try telling us it’s not the perfect combination.
- Pita Bread. Pita bread is usually associated with dips like hummus or tzatziki. Change up this classic combo by trying it with guacamole instead! Whether as a condiment on your pita sandwich or as a simple dip, guacamole is sure to spice up your snack time.
- Maki. Mexican meets Japanese in this fusion of flavors! I’m sure you’ve had a sushi roll with avocado, but you can take it to the next level with some guacamole.
- Pizza Topping. A touch of creamy and buttery guacamole could be just what your pizza needs! Whatever toppings you choose – sausage and pepperoni, ham and cheese, or chicken Alfredo – they will always be a little more exciting with some fresh guacamole.
- Grilled Cheese. True, grilled cheese is already perfect on its own, what with the perfectly toasted bread and ooey-gooey melted cheese. But there are always ways to improve things.
- Pineapples. Pineapples and avocados make such a wonderful flavor combination. The sweetness and tanginess of the tropical fruit just get better when topped with rich and savory guacamole.
- Soup. Could this spread be any more versatile? Yes, it can! Guacamole can even work as a tasty soup base. Puree it to make a delicious and refreshing avocado soup or use it to garnish other soups.
