INGREDIENTS
1 medium Ripe Plantain
1 cup Black Beans (low-sodium, drained)
1 large Egg White
1/2 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tablespoon Lime Juice
1 tablespoon Cilantro (chopped)
1/2 teaspoon Cumin
1/2 teaspoon Chili Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Peel and slice the plantain diagonally into 1/2-inch thick pieces. Arrange on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Sprinkle the plantain slices lightly with salt and a pinch of chili powder for a hint of spice, then bake for 20-25 minutes until tender and lightly caramelized, flipping halfway through.
While the plantains bake, heat the black beans in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in cumin, a dash of salt, pepper, and the lime juice. Allow the flavors to meld for 5 minutes.
In a small non-stick pan, lightly scramble the egg white until just set.
To plate, arrange the baked plantain slices and top with warm spiced black beans. Add the scrambled egg white on the side and finish with a dollop of nonfat Greek yogurt.
Garnish with chopped cilantro and an extra squeeze of lime if desired, then serve immediately.
