About Puerto rican sweet plantain lasagna
Puerto Rican Sweet Plantain Lasagna, known as "Pastelón," is a beloved dish from Puerto Rican cuisine that blends sweet and savory flavors in a hearty casserole. Layers of ripe, caramelized sweet plantains form the base, sandwiching seasoned ground beef or turkey, spiced with sofrito, garlic, and tomato sauce. This dish is often topped with cheese and baked to perfection, creating a melt-in-your-mouth meal that's both comforting and flavorful. While Pastelón is rich in vitamins A and C from the plantains, as well as protein from the meat, it is also calorie-dense due to the natural sugars in ripe plantains and the added cheese. Opting for lean meat and reducing cheese can make it a lighter option. A traditional Puerto Rican classic, it offers a glimpse into the island’s fusion of Spanish, African, and Caribbean culinary influences. Perfect for special occasions or family gatherings!
