Platano Al Comal

Since I traveled to Mexico I ate this amazing dish “Platano Macho al comal” since Platano is one of my favs food to eat as sooner I saw in the menu I ordered. But it wasn’t dairy-free and immediately I said I will re-create it vegan and dairy-free. Here you go. I hope you guys like it.

COCONUT YOGURT

Cultured coconut yogurt has health benefits, as it’s a probiotic-rich food packed with good bacteria that can support your digestive system. The bacteria in coconut yogurt are usually Lactobacillus bacteria, like Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus casei and Lactobacillus rhamnosus. raw coconut is packed with fiber and it is great for your stomach. 61% of coconut is made of fiber. It keeps any digestive issues at bay and improves bowel movement.

VEGAN FETA CHEESE

Like regular cheese, vegan cheese can be part of a healthy diet when used in moderation — but it’s best to avoid highly processed options. However, not all vegan cheeses are created equally. Some versions are highly processed and have less nutritional value than others. I used violafe

BEANS

Beans are a great source of fiber. That’s important because most Americans don’t get the recommended 25 to 38 grams each day. Fiber helps keep you regular and seems to protect against heart disease, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, and digestive illness.

“Beans and legumes are fiber-rich nutrient powerhouses and an excellent source of protein,” says Hopsecger. “One serving (1/2 cup cooked) of beans provides about 7 grams of protein, the same as 1 ounce of meat.” Beans and legumes also keep you fuller, longer because they are so rich in fiber.

AVOCADO

One of my fav food Avo. Avocados are a great source of several vitamins, minerals, healthy fats, and fiber, 3.5 ounces (100 grams), or about half an avocado, contain around 160 calories. Avocados also contain a fair amount of niacin, riboflavin, copper, magnesium, manganese, and antioxidants

Enjoy It, Xo!
