Ingredients

Tostones

  • 2 mostly-green plantains
  • Kosher salt

Simple Guac (optional)

  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 jalapeno seeds removed and diced
  • 1 garlic clove crushed and minced
  • 1/4 tsp fresh ground pepper
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
