Plantain Stuffing

Plantain stuffing is a delicious vegan treat for any festive meal. It’s great for stuffing a squash or to compliment any meal including Thanksgiving. The quantities in this recipe are sufficient to stuff a large Hubbard Squash or a medium size Pumpkin (just substitute this stuffing for the one used in those recipes). Preparation time is about 20-30 minutes and cooking time is about 30 minutes in a microwave oven, and up to twice as long in a conventional oven at 350 degrees F. Leftovers can be stored in a covered container in the refrigerator for several days, and is wonderful as a side dish or even for breakfast.
