Did you know you can freeze avocados? You can always have avocados on hand for your meal prep. 🥑 
There are two ways you can do it, either halved or pureed. Here’s how it’s done:* Wash the avocado, skin still on.* Cut the fruit in half, and with a knife, cut into the center core length wise and twist to remove the center.* Then use a spoon to remove the avocado. * If you are opting to keep them as halves, put them in a Ziploc bag and freeze. * If you’re pureeing, either mash the avocados with a fork or in a food processor with a little bit of lime or lemon. Store in a resealable bag and freeze. It’s a good idea to put indentations in the bag to make for easy portion sizes later, or store I ce cube trays. Now there’s a catch — isn’t there always?
