Stuffed Plantain Canoes

DifficultyBeginner
Prep Time15 minsCook Time25 minsTotal Time40 mins

Makes 5-6 Stuffed Plantains

The plantain boats are stuffed with a delicious and very versatile bunch of ingredients. The sweetness of the cooked ripe plantain combined with the spicy sausage and salty olives and hearty beans are a flavor combination jackpot. They are not only beautiful but extremely healthy and if you leave out the sausage the whole recipe would be oil-free. This recipe is a Puerto Rican street food that I veganized & I am in love with the result. You can use the filling to stuff peppers or for tacos but as a plantain boat, it is a must-try. I think you too will love it.  Be brave and make it for dinner tonight. 

Stuffed Plantain Canoes
INGREDIENTS
 6 Ripe PLANTAINS - slightly soft when you push on them
 6 oz KING OYSTER MUSHROOMS (3 large or any other mushroom)
 6 Beyond Meat SAUSAGE PATTIES (baked & chopped coarsely)
 1 cup Dried Black BEANS
 1 ONION diced
 3 ½ cups ROASTED RED PEPPER chopped
 ⅓ cup OLIVES (I use manzanita olives)
 CILANTRO for garnish
 A Splash of VEGGIE BROTH to sauté onions & mushrooms
 1 tbsp SAZON
 1 tbsp ADOBO
 1 tsp GARLIC POWDER
 SALT & PEPPER to taste
DIRECTIONS
1

Cut ends off plantains & slit skin once from top to bottom & peel.
Use hands to coat the plantains with olive oil.

2

Place in air-fryer & cook at 400F for 20 min (or till fork tender). Flip plantains after 10 min.*

3

Bake sausages in oven at 425F until cooked thru & crispy on the outside.

4

In a frying pan, add diced onions, mushrooms with a splash of veggie broth & sauté.

5

While sautéing add seasonings & cook until tender. (About 10 min).

6

Add black beans to the onion mushroom mixture.

7

Add to pan chopped peppers, sausage & sliced olives. Mix thoroughly.

8

When plantains are cooked & cooled, place them on a plate & make a slit lengthwise (leaving about 1/2” from each end, being careful not to cut all the way thru the plantain).

9

Carefully open the plantain slit to allow room for filling. (It will look like a canoe).
Spoon stuffing into plantain boats. (We pack ours in).

10

Garnish with chopped cilantro
DEVOUR & ENJOY!
