A tomato, a banana, a green onion… who knew these guys made such a great team?

But it’s not so surprising, really… Bananas have been used in all sorts of savory dishes around the world, and tomatoes are technically a fruit. The combo makes me think of fried sweet-banana cuban “maduros” with fresh salsa. But of course… without the calories, the heaviness, the toxicity of fried things.

This dish is quick, luscious, juicy, and I enjoyed the entire recipe myself for a filling meal without the benefit of crunchy side things, such as raw chips or organic tortilla chips. This was entirely satisfying on its own.

And, again… the theme of delicious food made from Utterly Pedestrian ingredients continues admirably. I am pleased.

:D

Great! This is likely to become a regular thing I eat for something quick… I did add some finely minced celery for crunch. Love your originality, Angela! :)

Stardancer, celery sounds like a great addition! I think cucumbers would work nicely as well. I shall keep that in mind next time!
