Make sure ground beef is well ground (that it has no chunks). 5. Add corn and string beans to mixture. 6. Add cheese to picadillo (ground beef), if using, it helps to bind the meat together. 7.

Pour two eggs, beaten, over bottom layer. 13. Top with ground beef layer. 14. Repeat plantain and beef layers, making sure the plantain layer is the top. 15. Optional cheese layer on top. 16. Cook in 350ºF oven for about 35 minutes, making sure eggs are cooked and not watery. 17. ENJOY! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
