Mash cooked plantain while it is still warm. Add non-dairy cream cheese, shredded garlic, chives and seasonings. Add enough water to make into a dough. If it too sticky, coat with bread crumbs.

Sauté peppers, onions, cilantro, and veggie meat in olive oil. Salt to taste.

Shape plantain dough into cups in the bottom of an oil-sprayed muffin pan. Bake in a moderate oven until golden brown. Stuff with filling.

Top with veggie cheese if you like and bake for a few minutes until cheese is melted. To serve, add some finely shredded cabbage, cilantro and lime juice on the top if you like.

* to cook plantain, slice and steam like potatoes until tender – it cooks longer than potatoes.
