This was my first time ever trying tostones or plantains for that matter.
We have been eating plantains more recently. They are extremely versatile. I love tostones and maduras, but we have been baking them in foil too.

Baked 'just yellow' in foil, then mashed w/ some butter and some garlic powder and salt, is an an excellent side dish.

Baked ripe(black with a little yellow), is a great breakfast or dessert.
