July 11, 2012 at 12:45 pm (12 years ago)I’m all for fresh, healthy foods (which is why I’m in love with your blog) but I’m pretty darn broke and absolutely hate wasting things. Things like avocados spoil really quickly after they’re cut…what do you do with the rest of yours when you’re only eating 1/4 of it?? Is there any salvaging that for something else?
Catherine
July 11, 2012 at 1:45 pm (12 years ago)After cutting my avocado, I keep it in a ziplock bag in the refrigerator (with the pit to keep it from browning)! I also use it in smoothies as a plant based fat portion, which also makes my smoothies thicker!

In response to Sally: My husband and I made this and we used a 1/2 avacado each (we LOVE avacado). So if you are cooking for just you, and make this two days in a row, you would probably use one whole avacado. It would keep for a day in the fridge (we wrap ours in tin foil but I’m sure ziplock bag would work too).
Also, another modification: we added sea salt and pepper on top and it gave it just a little extra kick 🙂 SO Delicious! Thanks!
