Puerto Rican Meat-and-Plantain Pie

This popular Puerto Rican casserole, also known as piñon, is served during the holidays and as a rotating weekly special. Yellow plantains are layered with meat and cheese, baked, and then cut like a lasagne. And like lasagne, the possibilities for fillings are endless: The versatile Picadillo is great; also try the Gorditas chicken filling and the Chiles en Nogada
