How to Freeze Avocados

Knowing which foods you can easily freeze means you can absolutely stock up and freeze items so you can lessen your frequency in grocery stores. It certainly is more convenient to walk to your freezer than it is to make a trip to the grocery store.
The other benefits to having a stocked freezer is having more time to do the things you WANT to do or NEED to do. Frequent trips to the grocery store can be such a time drain (especially when you're 45 minutes from a grocery store, like we are).
And if you're stuck at home for awhile, you could use the extra time to prepare bulk freezer meals that you'll benefit from for months to come!
