Notes
-
For best results, use fully ripe avocados.
-
Lime juice helps prevent browning — do not reduce the amount.

Avoid adding tomatoes before freezing (they change texture).
-
If using freezer bags, lay flat to freeze for easier stacking.
-
Frozen guacamole may look slightly darker after thawing — stir to restore texture and color.
