    arepa dominó con platanos y guacamolePin

    I enjoy taking time on the weekends to prepare a good, hearty breakfast. Very often I let my imagination take control and start playing with ingredients. It had been sometime since I last made a real tasty and satisfying arepa and I was craving one! I wanted to make a meatless arepa though so my husband could enjoy it too. So, I decided to make my Colombian version of this classic arepa, adding some plantains and guacamole.

    Arepa Dominó is a traditional Venezuelan Arepa stuffed with black beans and crumbled white fresh cheese. The difference between Venezuelan and Colombian arepas is that the Venezuela arepas are smaller, thicker, and stuffed with different ingredients, like a sandwich. Colombian arepas on the other hand, are thinner and topped, not stuffed, with different ingredients, more like an open faced sandwich. Here is the recipe for my version of Arepa Dominó.

    Buen provecho everyone!

      That's what I call a HUGE breakfast Erica! More for lunch or dinner for me. 🙂 It looks delicious.
      I love plantains, but have never cooked them at home. For some reason, I thought they needed to be cooked longer than in your dish. Or perhaps if you dice them small enough, they cook faster?

      Hay Erica..que rico. I do enjoy the combination of black beans and sweet plantains. This is one of the best you have made yet...maybe because they are Venezuelan...;D...

      Absolutely delicioso!
