How I Celebrated

I'm in Utah for Easter so I recruited my little sister for help. I got some deli ham and pre-sliced pineapple because I was on a quick vacation. Quick and easy!

Diet Helpers 

• Sugar Free

  Use honey for your sweet glaze on your ham. Paella is savory

• Gluten Free

  You should be all good here!

• Vegetarian

  You can try to honey glaze and bake a vegetarian ham. Veggie paella should not be too hard. 

Recipes

• Here is a new website, Wonky Wonderful

History

I did not realize that ham and pineapple was an Easter "thing". Come to think of it, I do think we made that in the cafeteria every year. At home, it just wasn't the star. Samoan feasts have way too many kinds of meat to focus on one. Also, I think I had real Spanish Paella maybe once in Spanish class because one of my teachers had lived a significant amount of time in Spain and knew how to do it just right.

Merchandise

Not a lot of merch here. People are probably too busy eating the food to wanna get creative about it.
