Great Hack Using Avocados

Sep 6

As most of you know, avocados are known as a superfood and many nutritionists and dieticians believe it’s no longer “an apple a day,” but an “avocado a day” for good health. We all need healthy fats in our diets and avocados are one of the best there is.

However, how many times have you bought avocados that go bad quickly and you end up throwing them out? For most people I know, it happens often and as they are pricey (especially if you buy organic), I looked for solutions to keep them from spoiling so fast and found one!

You might think I’m crazy, but this works like a charm.  Buy an ice cube tray at Target or your local store and when you get home and ripen up the avocado (if they aren’t ripe already), scoop them out and mash them up with a bit of lemon juice and add them to your ice cube tray like the picture shown.

Once your avocado cubes are completely frozen, pop them out of their trays and place into a freezer bag.  You can store them up to a month or two.  I use them frozen when I make smoothies and thaw them when I want to make guacamole or anything else with avocados. 

Tastes great and will save you tons of money from wasting food that goes bad too soon. Try it! I hope you enjoy this avocado hack as much as I do.
