This mashed plantains recipe is stupid simple, versatile, and can be made in bulk for meals throughout the week.
Even better: I’ve included both a sweet and savory option so you can use this recipe with unripe, green plantains and ripened yellow-black plantains.
Both recipe options are paleo, gluten free, and Whole30, with vegetarian and vegan substitutions.

Summer is the season for copious amounts of fruit. A Simple Sunbutter Fruit Dip makes an excellent companion for all your fruit-gorging on hot days!
With only 5 ingredients, this fluffy and smooth dip is as easy as summer eating gets. And the only piece of equipment you need is a blender or food processor.
I developed this recipe in partnership with my Fargo friend Kylee from Kai Fit!
Quick note: Kylee asked me to create a recipe or two for the giveaway. This post isn’t sponsored by Sunbutter, but the giveaway is.
Add Plantain Tortillas to the long list of overdue recipes here at Do You Even Paleo.
Since I first tried plantains, I’ve professed how much I love them. I’ve made plantain patties, plantain muffins, plantain cake, plantain beef bowls, and more. These starchy veggies are so incredibly versatile…it’s hard not to love them.
I’ve made plantain tortillas numerous times over the past few years, and I finally took the time to write down my favorite ways to make them. Both of these methods do take a little prep time, but tacos with these tortillas are so freaking good…you won’t regret it!
Chocolate and hazelnut are a match made in heaven. This gluten free chocolate hazelnut tart marries the two perfectly.
Admission: this no-bake tart is my last dessert for a while. I’m all sweetenered out! I really went down the rabbit hole of sweets, creating my dark chocolate pots de crème with marshmallow crème, then maca hot chocolate, then maple pecan bars, and finally this treat.
I’ll be back to nourishing whole foods for the foreseeable future. After all, one can’t live off of tarts and custards alone (and I never intended for this blog to be solely desserts)!
If we’re going to wave goodbye to desserts for a bit, this chocolate hazelnut tart is an epic send-off. A basic, press-in mixture makes up the crust like I’ve used in the past for my mocha avocado cream pie. Then you pour in creamy hazelnut butter (which you can buy pre-made or make at home). Finally, top the whole thing off with a thick layer of silky chocolate ganache.
