Saucepan

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line baking sheets with foil and coat with cooking spray or oil

Using a sharp knife cut both ends off the plantain. This will make it easy to grab the skin of the plantains. Slit a shallow line down the long seam of the plantain; peel only as deep as the peel. Remove plantain peel by pulling back.

Place plantains on tray and lightly spray, bake for a about 15, turn and bake on the other side for another 15 minutes or until golden brown and tender.

While the plantains are baking, add 2 tablespoon of oil to a saucepan, followed by onions, green onion , garlic and tomatoes. Let it simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent burning, add about 2 tablespoons or more of water if needed.

Then, add beans and continue cooking for about 5-7 or more minutes.

Finally add green pepper and parsley, adjust for seasoning

Remove baked plantains from oven cool for a couple of minutes; make a horizontal slit in the plantains, stuff with equal amounts of beans mixture.
