I made these little guys as an appetizer one year and they were a pretty big hit. With all the red and green they even look festive!

If you do make them for a large gathering, I recommend making them right before serving.

That way, they’ll be fresh and you’ll be less likely to eat them all before your guests arrive!

Guacamole Variations

If you’re in the mood, you can even change up your guacamole by squeezing different citrus in, such as a combination of fresh lemon, lime and orange juices.

Guacamole is the perfect combination of fruit and fat. It’s great served over scrambled eggs and burgers alike and it’s great all year long.

Guacamole Watermelon Bites

Yield: 8-10 Servings

Ingredients

  • 1 baby watermelon
  • 3 avocados
  • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • 5 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and chopped
  • 3 limes, juiced
  • 1 cup cilantro, chopped
  • coarse ground sea salt, to taste
  • 2 plum tomatoes, chopped

Directions

  1. Cut the watermelon in half. Then slice each half so you get circular pieces. Cut each circular piece into quarters and lay the pieces on a serving platter. The pieces should look triangular, with a curved bottom (because, you know, it's a watermelon and they're round). :)
  2. In a medium bowl add avocado, in large chunks. Mash with a fork until half smooth and half chunky.
  3. Add red onion, garlic, jalapeño pepper, lime juice, cilantro and salt to the bowl. Mix until combined.
  4. Add tomatoes prior to serving and mix well until combined.
  5. Scoop a serving of guacamole onto each watermelon piece, top with a tiny piece of cilantro and serve immediately.
  6. Enjoy! :)
