How to store Vegan fried avocado tacos?

I recommend you prepare everything in advance and store it for later use. For instance, you can store fried avocados once they reach room temperature. Store them in an air-tight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat them in the oven or air fryer until they are crispy again. Similarly, you can store lime crema in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
