Recipe: Spinach Luau

This simple but extremely satisfying dish is a plant-based twist on a traditional Hawaiian squid luau. This homey version of the Down to Earth deli’s Spinach Luau makes an excellent side dish for any meal. It will be demoed at VegFest 2018 by Madeline Kammerer, Community Outreach Assistant, Down to Earth Organic & Natural. See her bio here.
