Plantain Guacamole

2 very ripe avocados, diced

1 very ripe plantain (yellow with black spots), cut into small pieces

1 jalapeño, seeded and finely minced

1 habanero pepper, seeded and finely minced

2 garlic cloves, minced

¼ cup chopped cilantro

Juice of 2 limes

2 tablespoons prepared chunky, medium salsa

Peel and dice the avocados and place in a bowl. Peel the skin off the plantain, then cut flesh into small pieces and add to the bowl with the avocados. Mash the avocados and plantain together until creamy (a few chunks are OK).

Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and mix thoroughly. Cover and refrigerate until serving time.

Serves six.
