Krazy Kitchen Mom Tips

  • Wash the outside of avocados like you would any other fruit or vegetable.
  • Unripe avocados will ripen in 1-2 days by storing them in a brown paper lunch sack on the kitchen counter or windowsill.
  • To stop avocados from browning, drizzle them with lemon or lime juice. The acidity will keep them green longer.
