If you wanna make plantains chips just get the green ones. That's we (Puertorrican) make them. Cut them like you did fry them, don't burn them leave them little raw then get them out , with a plate flat them, fry it again until they're crispy and salt and pepper or Adobo. But hey this is fine is just going to be sweet.

EDIT: Okay, never mind... If your doing plantain chips, that is perfect ripeness. 3:24 It takes quite a while for yellow plantains to ripen to a brown, so no one ever finds super ripe in the store cuz the stores never let them get that far. So that plantain you have is still gonna be starchy with a hint of sweetness.... I would've just subbed with a yellow banana for full sweetness.

That looks delicious! I actually don't think it requires that much work, just meal prep the quinoa, the zucchini and squash can also be fried off before and the rest is pretty much just chopping. I would make smaller portions, then you do have leftover ingredients but you can use it for other things. There are also a few ways to make it cheaper like using dried chickpeas (which I'd meal prep) and just leaving out the hennep seeds, maybe substituting the pumpkin seeds with sunflower seeds. Maybe also replace some avo with (left-over humus). If you want to get more into salad I recommend roasted veggies (like cauliflower), with a grain, a legume and some fresh veggies. Roasting veggies requires less actively cooking time and if you are in a hurry just use (wholegrain) couscous which is done in 5 min. There are even methods to cook grains in the oven so then it's only cooking the legumes and chopping veggies. Just add a nice dressing and done!

I make salads with a wide variety of ingredients so it's never boring with the flavors or textures. I also top it off with chopped walnuts, pepinos and some craisins.
