Turkey Guacamole Dip

November 18, 2015 by Cara

This little guy is short, sweet and to the point. I’m taking one of my most favorite foods (avocado…okay, okay, the chips too!) and I’m making them into a Thanksgiving treat. No need for cranberries or pumpkin, heck, anything fall flavored here. Nope, I’m using traditional California ingredients that happen to be seasonal all year long. Now I just need a big bowl of freshly made salsa and a beer and we are set for the holidays with this Turkey Guacamole Dip.

Try this creative way to serve up an avocado during Thanksgiving season with this Turkey Guacamole dip!

You have a few options for serving this. It can be the prelude to Thanksgiving dinner; a fun way to serve up appetizers OR just a fun treat at home to get yourself in the mood for what’s to come. Make it for the kids, make it for yourself. There’s nothing more adult-like than eating guacamole in the shape of a turkey. Believe me, I should know. Dear God, I need kids…

Turkey Guacamole Dip. This is the PERFECT Thanksigiving treat!

So simple and easy is this Turkey Guacamole Dip!
