"I am writing a menu for a Hawaiian luau themed lunch meal in the cafeteria of where I work. I think this pasta salad with mandarin oranges and a teriyaki vinaigrette would actually be perfect for our themed salad bar. If you aren't a big fan of the teriyaki flavor, any homemade or store bought vinaigrette dressing would work well. For example, a citrus vinaigrette would be perfect."

"I am currently writing a Hawaiian menu for a luau themed cafeteria meal and I think that this grilled mango and pineapple salad recipe would be a perfect addition to our salad bar. Grilled fruit is such a delicious treat in the summer. When I am going to make this salad at home, I would add grilled chicken or shrimp to the top of the salad for some protein especially since the grill will already be on for the fruit."

"This mango and coconut muffin recipe looks very crumbly, fruity, and delicious. This is also a perfect example of a vegan recipe that uses a very ripe banana (mashed up) instead of using egg. Another option would be to use flax meal mixed with water or even mashed avocado instead of an egg. I would recommend the mashed banana for this recipe but you do have other options!"

"This pie has it all- Oreo cookies, chopped almonds, whipped cream topping, chocolate, and of course, the star of the show the shredded coconut. French silk pie is delicious and creamy in itself but this recipe takes it to the next level. One timesaver is to use a premade Oreo crust and then make the homemade chocolate filling."

"These bars seem like they would be a great dessert for the summertime! Instead of adding lemon zest, I would like to try these as just plain cream bars. Also, I recommend using a flavored yogurt to create a new dessert every time! Fruit flavored yogurts would work very well. I'd also add some oats or chopped nuts on top for some crunch."
