4

Fruits and Vegetables: ½ cup per serving

Ingredients

  • 2 green plantains, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable or olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Wash and prepare plantains.
  3. In a medium bowl, toss plantain slices with oil, spices, and salt. Spread in a single layer on a cookie sheet.
