Yeast Free Paleo Everything-Spiced Guacamole Veggie Cups
Creamy, vibrant guacamole gets a bold upgrade here, finished with a homemade everything spice blend that brings toasty sesame seeds, poppy seeds, and savory dried garlic and onion together in one addictive sprinkle. The whole thing is served in crisp bell pepper strips and hollowed-out cucumber rounds, so you get a satisfying crunch with every single bite — no chips, no crackers, no fuss. Because the spice blend is made from scratch using just seeds and dried aromatics, there's zero guesswork about hidden additives that can sneak into store-bought blends. Ripe avocados mashed with fresh lime juice, jalapeño, red onion, and cilantro keep the guacamole bright and punchy without any fermented or leavened ingredients in sight, making this naturally compatible with a yeast-free approach. It comes together quickly, looks stunning on a platter, and works just as well as a party appetizer as it does a light afternoon snack. The veggie cups also make portioning effortless — just fill, sprinkle, and serve.
