Love that stuff, do you store it in the bag it comes in or put it in something else? I have always taken it out of the bag and then covered it with saran wrap which does a pretty good job of keeping it from going brown on me. Just wondered if there was an easier way.

Thanks

I just snip the corner off the bag and squeeze out whatever I need, then kinda roll the bag back down from the corner I snipped.

The first time I did it and the corner was accidentally left open, I was amazed that it never turned brown, so I'm pretty confident in it. I was more afraid to take it out like you do, but evidently, that's OK, too.

I like it on burgers sometimes, so I took one package (of the two in the box) and put it into little cups to freeze it - then put those little frozen dollops in a Ziploc, so I'd have just a little bit to put on my burgers.

If I thought of it in advance, I'd just take one out and put it down in the fridge for a while; otherwise, just put it straight on the hot burger and it would be thawed before I even took a bite.

I also love it just as a side salad on top of some shredded lettuce, like in Mexican restaurants. I found I could freeze small amounts of shredded lettuce if I mix it with a salad dressing or other "oily" coating - so I mix a little bit of Classic Guac with it and freeze it in little patties in small plastic containers - then put those in Ziplocs.

Then I can thaw out some Guac and lettuce both in the fridge for my salad. Yumm!
