Ingredients

  • 2 medium green plantains
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 large mango
  • 1/2 cup red onion
  • 1/4 cup fresh cilantro
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  1. Peel and chop the plantains into 1/2 inch cubes.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the plantain chunks, cumin, and smoked paprika, stirring to coat evenly.

  3. While the plantains cook, dice the mango, red onion, and cilantro. In a medium bowl, combine these ingredients with the lime juice and toss gently. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
