- Here are a few tips to prevent browning of leftovers and make it last longer:
- Place the avocado pit in the guacamole (yes, this slows browning!)
- Squeeze lemon or lime juice over the top
- Place plastic wrap on top of the surface of the guacamole (try not to let any air get to it) and put it in the fridge
