Best Gadgets and Gifts for an Avocado Lover

For many of us avocado lovers, there’s nothing more delicious than freshly prepared large avocado, whether it’s sliced onto toast with a drizzle of balsamic dressing, diced atop a colorful Cobb salad, or mashed into a spicy bowl of guacamole. And the fact that the tasty fruit (yep, it’s categorized as a fruit, not a vegetable) is rich in potassium, omega 3 fatty acids, Vitamins K, B5, B6, C, and more doesn’t hurt either. The challenge? Getting all that green flesh out of the avocado’s skin and chopped without making a huge mess.

The good news is there are some great gadgets on the market today that can help make our avocados easy to prep and mess-free. And just in case you’re in disbelief, we’ve gathered 10 of our favorites to show off here in the blog today. So without further ado — avocado lovers, get those recipes ready and gather ‘round to check out our great avocado gadgets!

Joie Avocado Fresh Saver Pod

So what happens if you only want to eat half of your avocado now and save the other half for lunch tomorrow?

Luckily, there’s a super handy new gadget called the Joie Avocado Saver Pod, which allows you to store your avocado safely without wasteful plastic wrap or bags. BPA-free, this great gadget is shaped like the veggie within, allowing you to find it easily in the fridge. It’s also dishwasher safe. For best results, you can squeeze a spritz of fresh lemon juice over the exposed flesh of the avocado before storing.
