A thick corn tortilla, bigger than the usual kind. In Guatemala, the plaste is the countryside breakfast — large and filling enough to fuel a full day of work.
Example
"I ate two plastes with beans and wasn't hungry until the afternoon."
"Grandma's plastes are enormous — one fills you up for the whole day."
