Ingredients
Plantains
2 large #plantains
¼ tsp smoked paprika
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp onion powder
dash of cayenne optional
Salad
¼ red onion
1 small can #corn
1/2 cup cherry #tomatoes
Baby romaine
1 can black #beans
Cilantro Lime Dressing
1 avocado
2 limes juiced
Instructions
Begin by preheating the oven to 400. While the oven is preheating, cut the plantains into rounds. Place the sliced plantains on a baking sheet and top with the spices. Toss the plantain slices with the spices and ensure that everything is evenly coated. Place in the oven to bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
While the plantains are in the oven, prepare the remaining vegetables (if using fresh corn make sure to boil it at this point). Dice the onion and avocado, cut the cherry tomatoes in halves, and the corn vertically.
Roughly chop the romaine and add to a large bowl. Strain and rinse the black beans and add to the bowl. Add all the fresh vegetables and plantains.
Make the cilantro lime dressing by combining all ingredients together in a blender and blending until smooth.
Pour the avocado cilantro lime dressing over the salad ingredients in the large bowl and toss. Serve immediately and enjoy!
You can also do what I did and make each bowl individually. There's only two of us!
