Empanadas de Verde are a staple in Ecuador as an easy but satisfying breakfast or mid-day snack. Boiled green plantains are mashed with their own starchy cooking liquid and a bit of butter and salt for a delicious, and naturally gluten-free dough. Although you can use a variety of filings, a bit of melty queso fresco is a perfect choice. And no special equipment is needed to fry these up, our skillet will do the trick.
