Healthy Poke Bowl Meal Prep and Storage
Meal Prep: These make great meal prep bowls! The avocado will oxidize (turn brown) however. You can avoid that by sprinkling it with lime or lemon juice, or waiting until serving to add the avocado.
Storage: Will hold in the fridge for 3 days, does not hold well in the freezer.
