Answer 2

Aloha! There are a lot of easy Hawaiian dishes to make with a variety of flavors. Beware of recipes on recipe sites that just have "Hawaiian" in their name...it usually means they have just added pineapple and that there is nothing "Hawaiian" about it, except the pineapple, which isn't even native to the Hawaiian islands. Hawaiian does not necessarily equal pineapple. Here are a few of our favorite easy Hawaiian recipes.
