STUFFED PLANTAINS
My cleaning lady made these for me one day and I thought they were absolutely delicious. This is her version of Nicaraguan sweet and savory stuffed plantains. Having never had them, I don't know how authentic they are, but I know they are delicious.

Steps:
- Cut plantain into 3 pieces, keeping the peel on.
- Bring a pot of water to a boil and boil plantain until peel starts to bubble, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat and cool until easily handled. Peel and mash plantain. Separate into 3 equal-sized golf balls. Place each ball into a piece of plastic wrap and form into a 6-inch round. Place 1 1/2 tablespoon Cheddar cheese into each round, fold over, and pinch edges together.
- Heat oil in a medium size skillet on medium-high heat. Pan-fry stuffed plantains until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip plantains and fry for an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Steps:
- For the plantains: Pour the water into a medium pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
- Peel the plantains and cut in half horizontally, then cut each half down the middle vertically. Put the plantains into the pot and boil until soft, 7 to 10 minutes.
- For the beans: Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Saute the onions, peppers and tomatoes until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the kidney beans to the skillet with the garlic powder, salt, pepper and oregano. Cook the beans for 5 to 7 minutes, then add the coconut-based mozzarella and cheddar to the skillet and mix until the cheese is fully mixed in with the beans.
- Strain the boiled plantains and put 4 pieces on each plate. Scoop the cooked beans and cheese onto the plantains.
GRILLED STUFFED PLANTAINS
Plantains are brown when ripe, don't try to use the green or yellow ones for this. Instead of grilling you can also roast these in the oven the entire time instead of just at the end.
