One of our cooking projects this summer has been making recipes from Lilo and Stitch: The Official Cookbook. There are still plenty of recipes we haven’t tried, but here’s a look at the ones we’ve made so far:

• Kaua’i Sugarloaf Pineapple Salsa
• ‘Ohana Fruit Salad
• Blue Hawaiian
• Dawn Patrol Loco Moco
• Pā’ina Haupia Cake
• Pleakley’s Pink Stuff Frosé
• Braddah’s Baked Spaghetti
• Luki’s Shaved Ice
• The Green Flash
• Easy-Kine Kālua Pork
• Mahalo Hasagawa Matcha Brownies
• Island Grilled Lemonade
• Nani’s Spaghetti Salad
• Comforting Butter Mochi
• Gantu’s Galactic Brew
• Black and Blue Seared ‘Ahi with Experimental Sweet Potato Mash
• Guava Celebration Cake
• Pudge’s Peanut Butter, Jelly, and Banana Sandwich
• Rock-a-Hula Açai Bowls
• Hapa Kine Strawberry and Basil Cooler Companions

We have definitely been introduced to some new flavors (guava was a huge favorite!), cooking techniques (I’ve never grilled lemons for lemonade before!), and even culinary science (butterfly pea tea has some very interesting properties!), through these recipes, which I love, and most of the recipes have been big hits!
