Definitely try this on the first continent. After every successful clearance, exit to the menu, this saves your progress. Then if on the next level you hit 2 mines straight away, or just fail it, quickly exit to the dashboard and restart the game.
I would even go as far as to suggest if you hit a mine near the start and you're not confident at playing it, exit to dash then instead of carrying on and risking you being slow to get to the dash before it automatically saves.
ADDITION: Seems that people think it's easier later on, as you have more lives to protect you from failing, so as long as you take it slow and think it through, you might only be left with the odd 50/50 which sometimes happens, but at least you'll have the lives to see you through it.

I actually found it easier with the later continents, since you get more 'lives'. I think it gets up to three for the last few continents, making it pretty impossible not to get the achievement.

I got this on the sixth continent; definitely easier with more lives on the later continents

The campaign consists of 7 continents, all with 20 levels. Complete any without dying to get this achievement. The first is the easiest so it is your best shot. Also, you are allowed to make one mistake without losing in campaign mode.

Oh, and you can still get it if you have completed the campaign. Just start on the first level of any continent and play from there, it will unlock once you complete the twenty levels :)

I should note that the translation of this achievement on spanish language is wrong. It says "invite a friend and win a multiplayer round".

Once you've started Campaign Mode, be sure to win your first 20 levels without losing a round. If you do get unlucky and lose, you should quit to dashboard and reload the game. Make sure you save often so you don't play levels over and over again in the process.
Thanks to BrownsIndians for this advice.
