Recipe By Southern Living

Dont think you can get a filling, flavorful meal in just one bowl? Were here to prove you wrong. Brighten up dinnertime with this colorful, customizable meal. Start with bowls filled with yellow rice, black beans, and plantains, and then let everyone add their favorite toppings. If your family loves avocado, make sure you have enough to go around. Youll be floored by how much flavor fits into one bowl of this meatless meal. This simple recipe will be on your table in just 50 minutes, and every bite has sweet, spicy, salty, and savory notes. If youre new to cooking with plantains, we have a tip from the test kitchen: plantains are ready to cook when their peels turn black on the outside, so buy them black or let them ripen before cooking. Many grocery stores sell heat-and-serve frozen plantains too. Youll love the sweet crunch the plantains give this colorful dish, so gather the family around the table and tell them to dig in.
