💚 How to Preserve Your Avocados
Keeping avocados fresh can be tricky, but here are some foolproof tips:
- Leave the Pit In:
If using only half an avocado, leave the pit in the unused half to slow oxidation. - Lemon or Lime Juice:
Brush the exposed avocado with lemon or lime juice to prevent browning. - Store with Onion:
Place the avocado in an airtight container with a chunk of onion. The sulfur compounds in onions help preserve freshness. - Refrigerate Ripe Avocados:
Once your avocado is ripe, keep it in the fridge to extend its life by a few days. - Freeze for Later:
Mash ripe avocado with a little lemon juice and store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 6 months—perfect for future smoothies or toast toppings!
Whether you’re making a simple snack or indulging in gourmet toppings, avocado toast is a great way to elevate your plant-based lifestyle.

I started out several years ago watching Forks Over Knives, decided to “try out” the plant-based meal plan and had shockingly incredible results. I’ve never turned back. I have lost nearly 50 pounds, and that is just one side effect that me, my family, friends and clients have experienced after making the change.
Having been an incredible cook my entire adult life, I started my own personal chef service, NuYu Nourish, to extend my help to others. I interned under a celebrity chef, became a celebrity chef myself and have been expanding my reach and goals ever since! My plan follows strictly and simply those of Dr. Mcdougall, Dr. T. Colin Campbell and Dr. Esselstyn.
