Today I bring you Joe Montana’s Touchdown Guacamole. I have loved football forever but I was really addicted to it back when Joe Montana was playing with the 49ers. Those were great years of football!! My friend Karen and I would watch all the games but especially her team the Miami Dolphins and mine the San Fransisco 49ers. We had a friendly rivalry going on at that time.
Watching football and munching away on food kind of go hand in hand. So when I saw that #SundaySupper was doing a tailgating party I was all over it. Ken had found this recipe a few years ago and even though he doesn’t like guacamole he loves this one. Chunky and full of flavor. Thanks to Ken for finding it and to Joe Montana for all those great years of football and for this fabulous guacamole. Love it!!

Very excited to see this! Joe Montana’s son is the QB of my college’s football team right now and I’m going back for homecoming because it’s my 10 year reunion. I’ll definitely be making this to take to the game with me! (and if I run into Joe there-I’ll let him have a bite!)

You can never go wrong with guacamole in my book. I love it and have been known to hover over it at a party trying to claim it all LOL I love the little twists to a classic guacamole in this recipe. I have been on a black bean kick lately so this is right up my alley!

I love black beans also and guac, so for me it is great!!

I loved Joe Montana too…unless he was playing the Oilers! If his guacamole is as good as his throwing arm? This is MVP guac for sure!! I think this spin is a good one: the cheese and black beans are fabulous!!!
Noshing with the Nolands says
I think it is a MVP guac for sure!!

Can you believe that up until a few years ago, I was also too afraid to try avocados and guacamole? I know – what the heck was I thinking? Thankfully I’ve change my ways and I can’t get enough of the green stuff. This sounds fantastic! I love how chunky & jam-packed your guacamole is.
Noshing with the Nolands says
My husband was the same until he tried this guacamole!!

Oops, I don’t know why I typed the word “also” into the first sentence of my comment! Silly me – disregard that word!

Courtney | Touching Paper says
This recipe sounds so good and it doesn’t look half bad either… 🙂 My husband thinks I’m crazy because I call mashed avocados with pepper and garlic salt “guacamole”. He’ll be so excited to try this!
Noshing with the Nolands says
I am sure your husband will love it. Mine doesn’t like guacamole and loves this!!

Kim - Liv Life says
Saw this on the Pinterest board, and just had to comment!! Can I just tell you how much I love Joe??? I was in high school and college during his days, and went to see a few of the Super Bowl Parades in SF (because they always won!!) and I know that one time he actually waved at me. At least that’s what I choose to think. Montana, Clark, Rice… ahhhh! Those were the days!
If this is Joe’s I’m sure it’s good!!
Noshing with the Nolands says
Kim, I am pea green with envy that you saw Joe play. I watched from afar, way up here is Canada!! I loved Joe so much, my all time fav!! It is a great guacamole too!! Thanks for taking the time to come over!!
Patricia @ Grab a Plate says
Awesome – I could eat an entire bowl all on my own 🙂
Noshing with the Nolands says
I have been known too, thank Patricia!
Mary Ellen says
This looks amazing Tara, thank for sharing on #SundaySupper!
Noshing with the Nolands says
Thank you Mary!
Jean | DelightfulRepast.com says
Not a football fan, but I’m sure Joe Montana is a very nice man and I’d be more than happy to work my way to the bottom of a bowl of his delightful sounding guacamole! 😀
Noshing with the Nolands says
LOL, I can’t wait to make it again. Thanks Jean.
