This bold and smoky guacamole is perfect for the summer, whether you’re firing up the grill or roasting vegetables right on your stovetop. Guacamole is a great addition to any gathering, and if you want to impress your guests even more, use fire-roasted vegetables to create your guacamole.<\/p>\n

Gemma Aguayo-Murphy<\/a>, a blogger and creator of Everyday Latina<\/a>, loves using fresh, natural ingredients to make traditional Mexican dishes.<\/p>\n

She uses just four wholesome ingredients in her fire-roasted guacamole: ripe avocados, jalape\u00f1os, tomatoes, and onions. It\u2019s full of heart-healthy fats.<\/p>\n

Flames make all the difference.<\/p>\n

Whether you fire up your grill or roast vegetables directly on your stovetop, you\u2019ll be adding zesty flavors to your guacamole.<\/p>\n

Aguayo-Murphy was born in Mexico and has spent much of her life in the U.S. She explains that roasting vegetables brings out their rich, naturally sweet and smoky flavors, creating a guacamole that\u2019s fresh, simple, and full of depth. It\u2019s a nourishing twist on a traditional family favorite that\u2019s sure to become a staple at your summer table.<\/p>\n
