Avocados are one of those foods that elicit extremely strong feelings. Some people have written the fruit off as 'basic.' Others don't like the texture. Then, there's the large swath of humans that will add avocado to just about anything. (Toast. Smoothies. Chocolate.) If you fall into the latter camp, I have some excellent news for you.
Welch's, the company best known for its grape juice, just did the world a solid and created frozen bags of pre-cut avocado. Coming to grocery stores like Harris Teeter, Walmart, Stop and Shop, and Foodtown, these bags of frozen fruit mean you can have a consistent supply of avocados at the ready.
Now, can you spread it on toast whenever you want? No, not quite. BUT, you can add some to smoothies or salad dressings. You can make healthy ice cream without trying to determine the correct level of ripeness. You can even let them thaw and mash ‘em into guacamole.
Per Welch’s website: "Welch's frozen avocados are ripe-frozen so that they are always ready right when you need them. So convenient—not sliced, not diced, just perfectly hand-cut chunks and so versatile.”
They come in 10-ounce and 32-ounce bags, and contain 50 calories per serving.
One more plus: No cutting avos = no avocado hand (remember Joy Bahar's debacle?). Good looking out, Welch’s.
