Banana Avocado Dipmakes about 1/2 cup, adapted from martha stewart
1 ripe banana
1 small ripe avocado
2 tsp lemon juice
dash of salt and pepper
dash of garlic powder
Peel and pit the avocado, then mash it up in a bowl. Add in the banana and mash them all together. Add in lemon juice and the spices, and combine. Serve with plantain chips, tortilla chips, fruit and veggie slices, or anything else you'd like!
This was really good! I think this dip would also be good with different spices in it. What about a little cinnamon and sugar instead of the garlic? Hmm... guess I'll need to try it out!
Thanks for stopping by!
what an amazing idea! i love the combination and dipping the plantain chips in it! this would be an awesome variation for a party!
ReplyDeleteyes this would be a great party appetizer! plus the lemon juice helps to keep the avocado from browning quickly. :)
Deletewow ! I have to try this. great idea!
ReplyDeleteThis is so so neat - love this!
ReplyDeleteI also love plantains, but have never made plantain chips before :)
I haven't either, but I am guessing they can't be too difficult? Although I always end up burning myself when I try to pan fry things! =/
DeleteI mixed half a ripe banana and small avocado with a smidge of sugar, cinnamon, and salt--very tasty on Back to Nature's Sweet Potato and Cinnamon Crackers--available at Trader Joe's.
