4 very ripe plantains (black), peeled
1/2 cup of seasoned (cooked) ground meat, for stuffing
4 strips of guava, for stuffing and
4 slices of white cheese
Bar-b-que'd Sweet Plantains
On a hot grill, place the peeled plantains for about 7 minutes, turn and grill for 7 more minutes so that each side is cooked evenly. Once golden brown, use a small knife to slice the plantains lengthwise down the middle. Stuff them with cheese and guava or with the cooked ground meat. Put the plantains back in the grill for 2 more minutes or until the cheese is melted.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve the cheese & guava plantains as an appetizer and the ground meat plantains as the main dish with potato salad.
