STORAGE
You can make Jalapeno guacamole ahead of time. Just make sure to add lots of lemon juice. Place a plastic wrap directly over the guacamole and remove the air out. This will prevent it from getting brown and remain green & bright. When you want to consume, remove the plastic wrap and serve it as needed. CAN YOU MAKE GUACAMOLE USING FROZEN OR UNRIPE AVOCADOS? FROZEN AVOCADOS: Just like fresh avocados, frozen avocados are also great to use in guacamole. You can also use them in making dip, dressing, smoothies, etc. Just make sure to puree the avocados and freeze them in an ice tray. Before freezing spray lemon juice to avoid oxidation.UNRIPE AVOCADOS: It is safe to use unripe avocado in the recipe. Just the only difference is unripe avocados don't taste that good.

Spray lots of lemon juice & line them with plastic wrap by removing the air out. Freeze the guacamole. Once frozen, store them in freezer-safe bags. HOW DO YOU KEEP JALAPENO GUACAMOLE FROM BROWING?
