Tip!
There are numerous suggestions, how to prevent avocados from discolouring, such as by drizzling with lemon juice, Cover with cling film or leave stones in the spread until serving. All of them have failed. In my opinion there are only two options: Either you prepare the spread just before serving, or you won't let the gray color bother you.
