In a skillet, brown the ground beef.
As its almost all the way browned, add the lime juice, soy sauce, garlic, adobo, oregano and salad olives. Stir well.
Add tomato sauce and cilantro, stir well and allow for liquid to evaporate. You'll see more oil than water in the skillet at that point.
Set aside.
Peel the yellow (sweet) plantains, cut into 3 pieces and add to a water filled pot.
Cover and bring to a boil. Cook until plantains are tender. About 15 to 20 minutes. Sweet plantains will cook faster or slower depending on how ripe they are, so keep poking for tenderness.
Once plantains are cooked, drain and remove them into a deep bowl.
Mash all the plantains. Add butter and mash in well.
Add milk in small amounts as needed. Mash well. We are looking for a mashed potatoes consistency.
Heat oven to 450ᴼ degrees.
Once ready, use a lasagna type baking pan. Spray it with spray oil or butter.
Spread half of the mashed sweet plantain at the bottom of the pan.
Next, spread half the ground beef mixture over the sweet plantains.
Spread the second half of the sweet plantains over the beef mixture.
Now spread the second half of the beef mixture over the sweet plantains.
Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the beef mixture layer.
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until the top is nice and golden brown.
Cut into 9 pieces and enjoy!
