Ingredients

  • 3 large ripe avocados
  • 4 medium green plantains
  • 2 cups mixed tropical fruits (pineapple, mango, papaya)
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C). Slice the plantains into thin rounds and place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, season with salt, and toss to coat evenly. Bake for 20 25 minutes or until crispy and golden brown, flipping halfway through.
  2. While the plantains are baking, slice the avocados in half and remove the pits. Scoop out the flesh and mash with a fork until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Spread the mashed avocado onto 6 individual plates or a large serving platter.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine the diced tropical fruits, bell pepper, onion, cilantro, lime juice, and the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Toss gently to mix. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  4. To assemble, top each avocado toast with an even layer of the fruit salsa. Arrange plantain chips around the edge of the plate or serve them separately alongside the avocado toast and salsa.
