21 Popular Guacamole Halloween Appetizers
I love finding tasty ways to make Halloween more fun. Guacamole is a favorite snack of mine, and it’s honestly so easy to turn it into something spooky and festive for parties.
With the right ideas, I can create Halloween appetizers that are both delicious and eye-catching. These treats really do bring extra excitement to any Halloween gathering.
1) Classic Guacamole Deviled Eggs
I love how simple, yet fun, these Classic Guacamole Deviled Eggs are for Halloween. They use basic deviled eggs, but the yolk mixture gets a fresh twist by mixing in guacamole.
I start by hard-boiling some eggs and peeling them once they cool down. Then I slice them in half and pop out the yolks into a bowl.
I mash the yolks with ripe avocado, a little lime juice, and salt. Sometimes I’ll add chopped tomato or onion for more flavor, but that’s totally optional.
Once it’s creamy and smooth like guacamole, I spoon or pipe the mix back into the egg whites. The green color stands out and feels just right for Halloween.
For some festive fun, I use sliced black olives or bits of red pepper to decorate the tops. They can look like little spooky eyes or monster faces if you get creative.
These eggs are easy to pick up and eat with your fingers. They add a pop of color to the snack table and pair well with other appetizers.
Kids and adults both like the mix of flavors. It’s also nice that this snack doesn’t need a lot of fancy ingredients—just eggs and basic guacamole items.
If you want, you can make them in advance and chill them until your guests arrive. Just cover the eggs so the guacamole stays bright and fresh.
I sometimes sprinkle a little paprika or chili powder on top for color and a mild kick. Adjust the toppings depending on who’s eating them.
2) Spicy Guacamole Stuffed Mini Peppers
I love making spicy guacamole stuffed mini peppers for Halloween parties. They look colorful on the table and taste great with other snacks.
First, I pick up a bunch of sweet mini peppers. I cut each one in half and scoop out the seeds.
These little peppers are the perfect size for finger food. For the stuffing, I make homemade guacamole.
I mash ripe avocados and mix in diced tomatoes, onions, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. For heat, I add chopped jalapeños or a bit of hot sauce.
I keep the mix spicy, but not too hot for kids. I use a spoon to fill each pepper half with my spicy guacamole.
The green from the guacamole looks awesome against the bright reds, oranges, and yellows of the peppers. Sometimes, I sprinkle a tiny bit of paprika or chili powder on top for extra color.
The stuffed peppers are easy to hold. Since they’re just one or two bites, guests can grab them without needing a plate or utensil.
Kids seem to like the sweetness of the peppers mixed with the creamy dip. I usually make a batch right before the party so the guacamole stays fresh and green.
If I need to save time, I prepare the peppers and guac ahead of time and fill them just before serving.
3) Guacamole and Black Bean Taquitos
I like to make guacamole and black bean taquitos because they are easy to hold and fun to eat. I start by mixing creamy guacamole with mashed black beans in a bowl.
Then, I scoop a spoonful into the center of a small tortilla. After that, I roll the tortilla up tight and place it on a baking sheet.
Sometimes, I brush the tops with a little bit of oil to help them get crispy in the oven. They only need about 10 minutes to cook at 400°F.
Once they come out warm and golden, I let them cool for a minute. I put them on a tray and serve them right away.
For Halloween, I sometimes use toothpicks with spooky decorations to make them look more festive. These taquitos taste great with extra guacamole or salsa for dipping.
The black beans add some protein, which helps them feel more filling. Kids and adults both seem to enjoy them at parties.
Taquitos can be made ahead and reheated if needed. That makes them a good choice when I’m busy getting ready for a Halloween event.
I like how crispy they get but still stay soft inside. If I want to change up the flavor, I might add a sprinkle of shredded cheese or some taco seasoning to the filling.
I keep it mild so everyone can enjoy them. Sometimes I even use blue corn tortillas to make the color stand out at a Halloween table.
4) Guacamole Sliders with Jalapeno
I thought sliders would be a perfect snack for any Halloween party. These guacamole sliders are small but packed with flavor.
They fit right in your hand, and people can just grab one and go. To make them, I use mini burger buns.
I toast them until they are just a little crispy. For the filling, I put in a small beef or veggie patty, then add a big spoonful of fresh guacamole.
I don’t forget the jalapeno slices. I place one or two on top of the guacamole.
The jalapenos give a kick, but you can use less if you want a milder taste. For more color, sometimes I add a little shredded lettuce or a thin slice of tomato.
It makes the sliders look bright and a little festive. A toothpick in the middle helps hold everything together.
I like to put the sliders on a tray lined with lettuce leaves. People can easily take one while moving around.
The green from the guacamole and jalapeno fits the Halloween theme if you want a spooky or monster look. These sliders are easy to make in batches.
It’s simple to swap out the beef for a bean patty if you need a vegetarian option. Just make sure you use fresh guacamole for the best taste.

I love how easy these bacon guacamole dip cups are to make for Halloween parties. Each cup holds a scoop of creamy guacamole, and the bacon adds a salty crunch that makes every bite better.
I usually use small plastic or paper cups for serving, which helps keep things mess-free. To make the cups, I start by cooking crisp bacon and letting it cool.
Then I chop it into small pieces. Next, I put a layer of guacamole in the bottom of each cup.
After that, I sprinkle the chopped bacon on top of the guacamole. Sometimes I add a few mini tortilla chips, so my guests can dip right into the cup.
I like to add a little lime juice or a sprinkle of cilantro for some extra flavor. On Halloween, I sometimes use orange or black cups to match the theme.
If I want to be more creative, I use food-safe markers to draw spooky faces or pumpkins on the cups. Each cup is single-serving, so guests don’t have to share dips or spoons.
These cups are quick to make and work well with homemade or store-bought guacamole. Whenever I serve them, they’re usually one of the first snacks to disappear from the table.

I try to make each bite look neat, so it’s easy for guests to pick up and eat. I sometimes add little toppings to make them stand out.
A slice of black olive can look like an eye. Chopped red bell pepper or a small piece of tomato adds color.
For extra spice, I might add a piece of jalapeño. If I want to make them extra festive, I arrange the bites on a platter in the shape of a spooky face or a pumpkin.

Plus, I can make a big batch or just a few, depending on how many people are coming. If I need a quick and easy guacamole appetizer for Halloween, this is always one of my favorite choices.
8) Skewered Guacamole and Shrimp
For this appetizer, I like to use fresh shrimp and creamy guacamole. I begin by cooking the shrimp until they turn pink and firm.
After they cool, I slide each piece onto small wooden skewers. Each skewer gets a generous dollop of guacamole.
Sometimes I put the guacamole on first, then top it with shrimp, but either order works. The bright green guacamole looks nice next to the pink shrimp.
I often sprinkle a little lime juice and a pinch of salt on top. This adds a fresh flavor that works well with both shrimp and avocado.
Sometimes I also add a little chopped cilantro for extra color. These skewers are easy to pick up and eat.
I like that they are less messy than chips with guacamole. Guests can enjoy them in just one or two bites.
I find that making these ahead of time works well. I store the guacamole in a sealed container to keep it from turning brown.
Then, I assemble the skewers just before serving. I sometimes use mini skewers and put one shrimp with a small scoop of guacamole.
Other times, I use bigger skewers with two shrimp each. This helps me choose the right size for my guests.
It’s fun to play with the look. For Halloween, I line the skewers on a tray and decorate with small plastic spiders or Halloween picks.
That makes them festive for the occasion. When I serve these, they disappear quickly.
The mix of creamy guacamole and tender shrimp is simple, but always a hit with my friends.
9) Guacamole and Pulled Pork Tacos
I love serving guacamole with pulled pork tacos at Halloween parties. The creamy guac with savory pork is just a great combo.
It’s honestly pretty easy to put together a tray of small tacos and top each one with a spoonful of fresh guacamole. For tortillas, I grab either small corn or flour ones—depends on what I have.
Sometimes I toast them a bit, just enough to make them warm and soft. I fill each tortilla with a small scoop of pulled pork, careful not to overstuff so they’re easy to eat in a couple of bites.
I always spread some guacamole on top while the pork is still warm. The cool guac against the hot meat? So good.
If I’m feeling fancy, I’ll sprinkle on a few chopped tomatoes or a little cilantro. Adds color and a fresh kick.
These mini tacos just fit right in with a Halloween appetizer spread. Super easy to grab and eat while walking around or chatting.
I usually make them ahead and arrange on a big platter. I set out extra guacamole in a bowl for anyone who wants more.
Eating tacos with friends on Halloween—can’t go wrong. It’s kind of a tradition for me now.
10) Guacamole Stuffed Mushrooms
Mixing guacamole with mushrooms makes a quick Halloween appetizer that I keep coming back to. The earthy mushrooms and creamy guac just work together.
I usually use white button mushrooms or baby bellas. First, I pop out the stems and scoop out a bit inside with a spoon to make room for the filling.
It’s always a good idea to clean the mushrooms before stuffing. Then I fill each cap with a spoonful of guacamole—homemade if I have time, but store-bought works in a pinch.
Sometimes I add little bits of black olive for “spider eyes” or tiny pieces of red bell pepper for a spooky vibe. It’s a silly touch, but people notice.
I chill the stuffed mushrooms for about 20 minutes so they hold their shape. I like them cold, but they’re fine at room temp too.
When friends see these at my Halloween party, they’re usually curious. Bite-sized snacks are always a hit.
If there are leftovers, I just keep them in the fridge for snacking later. Guacamole stuffed mushrooms work for kids and grown-ups, and the green color is perfect for Halloween.
I always make a few extra because, somehow, they vanish faster than I expect.
11) Guacamole and Cheese Quesadillas
Guacamole and cheese quesadillas are a go-to for me when I want something fun but easy. They work warm or at room temp, which is handy for parties.
I start by spreading guacamole on half of a flour tortilla. Then comes a generous sprinkle of shredded cheese—cheddar, Monterey Jack, or whatever’s in the fridge.
Fold the tortilla over, press it down, and cook it in a pan over medium heat. Once one side is golden, I flip it so both sides get crisp and the cheese melts.
After cooking, I cut the quesadilla into wedges. If I’m feeling playful, I’ll use a cookie cutter to make pumpkin or spider web shapes for Halloween.
I pile the wedges on a big plate so everyone can grab a piece. Sometimes I set out extra guacamole for dipping.
They’re best when fresh and warm, but honestly, they’re still tasty after cooling off. This recipe is a crowd-pleaser and doesn’t take much time.
The gooey cheese with zesty guacamole makes every bite satisfying. It’s a nice way to stay on theme without a ton of effort.
12) Guacamole Salsa Verde Flatbread
Guacamole salsa verde flatbread is what I make when I want something easy but a little different. It’s creamy guac and tangy salsa verde on warm flatbread—simple but bright and fresh.
I start with store-bought or homemade flatbread, brush it with olive oil, and toast it until it’s a bit crispy. Then, I spread on a thick layer of guacamole while it’s still warm.
For salsa verde, I usually use a mild store-bought version and drizzle it over the top. The tartness pairs well with the avocado.
Sometimes I’ll add thin slices of red onion or a few jalapeño rings for a kick. Fresh cilantro on top is always a nice touch.
I cut the flatbread into small pieces so guests can just grab a slice. It holds up well and doesn’t get soggy.
This appetizer is quick to make, easy to share, and the green fits right in with a spooky theme. People who like guacamole usually enjoy this twist.
Leftovers go in the fridge for a snack later. You can use naan, pita, or any flatbread you like—each one changes the flavor a bit.
13) Guacamole and Roasted Corn Dip
Mixing sweet roasted corn with creamy guacamole is one of my favorite Halloween dips. The corn adds crunch and a little roasted flavor—makes each bite interesting.
I roast fresh or frozen corn in a skillet until it’s golden and a bit charred, let it cool, then stir it into guacamole. Sometimes I’ll squeeze in some lime and toss in chopped cilantro for freshness.
If I want more heat, I add a bit of jalapeño. I serve the dip with tortilla chips, cut veggies, or even crackers.
The yellow corn against the green guacamole looks festive, especially with blue corn chips. It’s a simple way to make guacamole more exciting without getting too wild.
I keep extra corn on the side so guests can add more if they want. It’s quick to make, easy to adjust, and the bowl always empties fast at my parties.
14) Guacamole Deviled Jalapenos
Sometimes I want something with a little kick, so I make guacamole deviled jalapenos. They’re like deviled eggs, but with fresh jalapeno halves instead of eggs.
I slice large jalapenos in half and carefully take out the seeds—gloves are a good idea here. For the filling, I mash up ripe avocados with lime, salt, onion, and sometimes tomato or cilantro.
I fill each jalapeno half with a spoonful of guacamole. If I want to get fancy, I’ll pipe the guac in and top with a slice of black olive or a sprinkle of paprika.
They’re creamy, fresh, and definitely spicy, so I always warn my guests. The green guacamole looks perfect for Halloween, and they hold up well at room temp for a while.
I usually make these just before serving so the guac stays bright. If I’ve got a big group, I double the batch—they go fast.
15) Guacamole and Tuna Tartare
For something a little different, I like pairing guacamole with tuna tartare. Creamy avocado and tender tuna just make sense together.
I mash up ripe avocados with lime, cilantro, salt, and tomato for the guac. For the tartare, I dice fresh tuna and mix it with soy sauce, sesame oil, and green onion.
The guacamole goes down first, then a spoonful of tuna on top. Sometimes I add sesame seeds for crunch or use black sesame seeds for a Halloween look.
The colors pop—green and deep pink—and they look kind of fancy on a platter. They’re easy to pick up and eat, which is always a plus for parties.
This appetizer feels special but isn’t hard to make. People who like sushi and avocado usually go for these, and I keep them simple so everyone can try one.
Best to make them right before serving so they stay fresh.
16) Guacamole and Mango Salsa Cups
Guacamole and Mango Salsa Cups are one of my favorite colorful party snacks. Creamy guac with sweet-tangy mango salsa—what’s not to like?
I scoop guacamole into small cups or clear bowls, then top with a spoonful of mango salsa. The bright orange mango against the green avocado really stands out.
Sometimes I sprinkle on chopped cilantro or a little chili powder for a kick. I keep the cups small so guests can just grab one and go.
Fresh mangoes and ripe avocados are best, but I’ll use pre-made if I’m in a rush. Homemade is always better, though.
These cups are easy to customize—swap in pineapple or add black beans if you want to mix it up. They’re great for Halloween because of the colors and how easy they are to serve.
I arrange the cups on a tray and sometimes put out corn chips or veggie sticks for dipping. It’s a simple, mess-free snack that helps everyone get a fair share of guac.
17) Guacamole Grilled Cheese Bites
I love making these guacamole grilled cheese bites for parties, especially around Halloween. They’re warm, cheesy, and packed with creamy guacamole.
Kids and adults both seem to like them since they’re easy to pick up and eat. Honestly, I think they’re just fun to make, too.
First, I grab some bread and cut it into small squares. I spread a thin layer of butter on one side of each piece, just enough to help them crisp up when grilled.
Then comes the good part. I spread a spoonful of guacamole on the unbuttered side of half the bread, and pile a little shredded cheese on top. Usually, I go with cheddar or Monterey Jack since they melt nicely.
I cover each one with another piece of bread, buttered side out. Into the pan they go, medium heat, about two or three minutes per side.
Once the bread turns golden and the cheese is all melty, they’re done. I let them cool for a few minutes before cutting them into bite-sized squares or triangles.
Sometimes I stack them on a plate with toothpicks—makes them easier to grab. For Halloween, I might use a tiny cookie cutter to shape them like pumpkins or ghosts.
Every now and then, I sprinkle a little paprika or some chopped herbs on top for color. They taste best warm, but honestly, they’re still good at room temp.
18) Guacamole and Chipotle Chicken Skewers
Combining creamy guacamole with spicy chipotle chicken? Always a good idea, especially for parties.
For these skewers, I grill bite-sized chicken pieces tossed in chipotle seasoning. Sometimes I throw in a little smoked paprika for extra kick.
After grilling, I let the chicken cool a bit before threading them onto appetizer sticks. Then I top each piece with a spoonful of guacamole.
The cool, rich dip against the smoky chicken just works. If I’m short on time, I don’t mind using store-bought guac.
I arrange the skewers on a platter so people can just grab and go. Sometimes, I get fancy and add a slice of jalapeño or sprinkle chopped cilantro on top.
They always disappear fast at Halloween parties. Plus, I can make a big batch in advance and keep them chilled until it’s time to eat.
If you want them milder, swap in a less spicy marinade. Either way, it’s a fun twist for anyone wanting something a little different.
19) Guacamole and Sweet Potato Fries
Guacamole with sweet potato fries is one of my favorite Halloween snacks. The orange fries next to the green guac just scream Halloween to me—like pumpkins and monsters on a plate.
I slice sweet potatoes thin and bake them until they’re crispy. If I’m in a rush, frozen fries work just fine.
Once they’re done, I arrange them around a big bowl of guacamole. Sometimes I dust the fries with smoked paprika or chili powder for a little extra flavor.
The sweet fries and creamy guac make a great pair. Sometimes I even cut the fries into spooky shapes for extra fun.
Kids and adults both seem to love dipping fries into guacamole. It’s simple, but it looks festive and tastes great.
If I need to save time, I just buy everything ready-made. This snack comes together in minutes and still feels special.
20) Guacamole Topped Meatballs
Guacamole topped meatballs are a go-to for Halloween parties. They’re easy to put together and even easier to eat.
I usually use ground beef or turkey, but veggie meatballs work too. I season them with salt, pepper, and a little garlic, then bake or pan-fry until they’re cooked through.
Once they’re done, I let them cool just a bit before adding a spoonful of guacamole on top. Sometimes I sprinkle on diced tomatoes or chopped cilantro for color.
They end up looking a bit like monster eyes, especially if you add a slice of black olive on top. It’s a fun, slightly spooky touch for the table.
I serve them with toothpicks so people can just grab and go. Less mess, more snacking.
Making these doesn’t take much time. I usually whip up the guacamole while the meatballs cook.
Store-bought guac works if I’m in a hurry, but homemade is always extra tasty with ripe avocados, lime, and a pinch of salt.
If I’m making a big batch, I keep extra guacamole on the side so I can top off any meatballs before serving.
21) Guacamole and Sliced Radish Toast
I love how easy this appetizer is—honestly, it’s almost too simple. I just toast my favorite bread until it’s nice and crispy.
Then, I slather on a thick layer of fresh guacamole. Slicing up some fresh radishes gives the whole thing a satisfying crunch.
I usually grab a sharp knife and cut the radishes into thin rounds. Those red edges with the white centers really pop against the green.
It’s perfect for Halloween parties, too. The colors are kind of wild—almost like something you’d see on a monster’s face.
If I’m feeling playful, I’ll arrange the radish slices into goofy eyes or weird little patterns. Sometimes it turns out spooky, sometimes just funny, but it always feels festive.
Plus, you can just pick it up and eat it—no mess, no fuss. I can whip up a whole tray in a few minutes if I’m in a hurry.
Kids usually like the colors, and the radishes have this mild bite that’s not too much for most people. If I’m honest, I sometimes sneak in a pinch of salt or a squeeze of lime right before serving, just to wake up the flavors.
There aren’t many ingredients, which is a lifesaver when I’m short on time. It always seems to disappear fast at get-togethers—go figure.
