Red Meat Allergy Friendly Paleo Smoky Paprika Guacamole Veggie Cups

Creamy, smoky, and packed with fresh flavor, this guacamole is the kind of snack that disappears from the platter before you've even finished setting it down. Ripe avocados get mashed to a perfectly chunky texture, then layered with smoked paprika, cumin, lime juice, and fresh cilantro for a dip that tastes anything but simple. Instead of chips, crisp bell pepper strips and hollowed cucumber rounds do the scooping — a clever swap that keeps things light, fresh, and entirely plant-based. For anyone navigating a red meat allergy, this recipe is a natural fit since every single ingredient is produce, spice, or citrus — no animal proteins, no hidden meat-based additives to second-guess. The veggie cups also make this feel a little fancy, like something you'd find at a catered party rather than a weeknight snack spread. A dusting of smoked paprika on top adds a gorgeous pop of color and a subtle depth that ties the whole thing together. Make it for a crowd or just for yourself — either way, it's the kind of recipe you'll come back to again and again.
