1: Porg Puffs
While Porgs where undeniably cute, and in no way annoying like most of us feared, in Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Plenty of us did secretly wonder if they would be any good to eat or not. Well, without having to ask Chewie we can make our own delicious Porg Puffs and decide for ourselves.
Created by Jenn Fujikawa, this recipe is a nice and easy one. Everything you are going to need to make them are pretty easy to come by and the method is even easier. The only problem you may have is making your Porg Puffs look as delicious as what Fujikawa did.
To be fair though, what your Porg Puff looks like probably won’t impact the taste too much.
2: Princess Leia Oreo Truffles
Any recipe that contains Oreo cookies you can pretty much guarantee I am going to try it. Oreo’s just make everything better.
Created by Becky at The Cookie Rookie these Princess Leia Oreo Truffles not only look quite fun to make, they are delicious as well. An easy recipe to put together these will easily go down a treat while watching Star Wars and the best thing is that they can last up to a week if you keep them right.
That is assuming you can resist the urge to eat them all in one go.
3: YodaMelon!
This is just brilliant. You can’t help but marvel at the creativity that has gone into this one. The best thing about it though, is how simple it is.
YodaMelon, put together by Kitchen Fun With My 3 Sons, is a healthy alternative for you. It is also the simplest recipe that is on this list. As you literally just need a Watermelon. That’s it. The only other thing you need is a bit of skill turning your Watermelon into a YodaMelon.
4: Jabbacado Toast
It’s another one from Jenn Fujikawa. It’s not another Porg recipe, however, this time it’s a Jabba.
Start May the Fourth of right with Jabbacado Toast. Avacado has become one of those foods that everyone claims to be eating. Whether we are or not is another thing, but it has become a food that if you adopt a healthy lifestyle you should be eating at least once a day.
So if you do have an Avacado and fancy doing something a little bit different. Kick off the day with some Jabbacado Toast.

5: Bantha Milkshake
You’re going to need something to drink at some point as well. You can settle for some water, soda or some other rubbish beverage but it is Star Wars day. So why not try your hand, and taste buds, at some Bantha Milkshake.
Put together by the Disney Diner. This step by step video shows you exactly what you are going to need and what you need to do to create the funky concoction.
6: Stormtrooper Peanut Butter Cups
I would love to own a time machine and go back to when the first infusion of peanut butter and chocolate was first unveiled to the world. Just to see how people reacted. Because if you think about it. It’s a pretty weird thing to combine together. Thank god someone did though.
Anyway, if you fancy something peanut buttery on Star Wars day, try making these Stormtrooper Peanut Butter Cups by Ashlee Marie Cakes. They are simple enough to make, nothing too technical is needed, the only issue is you need some Stormtrooper cake pop molds.
7: BB-8 Cake Pops
BB-8 lovers will enjoy making, and eating, these BB-8 Cake Pops.
Created by Rosanna Pansino as part of her Nerdy Nummies series. Pansino takes you through, step by step, on how to create these wonderful little edibles.
Probably one of the more difficult recipes to make out of all them here, mainly because of how many steps are needed to make them, but it is one that once you have made them, you will not regret them.
8: Millennium Falcon-Inspired Pie
It wouldn’t be Star Wars without the Millennium Falcon kicking about somewhere.
Thankfully Food Network has a Millennium Falcon-Inspired Pie to make sure that the Falcon can make it onto your table. You’re going to have been pretty arty to pull this off as well as the person in the video but half the fun is making the food. The rest is obviously eating the pie. Actually, who am I kidding? Eating is 75% of the fun, making is the other 25%.
9: Star Wars Popcorn
Lastly, if you are going to binge watch any movie, you need popcorn. It is the staple food for all movie watchers after all.
Star Wars popcorn is pretty easy to make. You don’t need anything special. Just get yourself a bag of popcorn, whatever flavor you fancy, and then all you need to add is some candy that reflects whatever Star Wars character you like.
So, if you fancy BB-8 get some orange and white candy. R2-D2, blue and white. You get the idea. Just mix that in and you have your very own Star Wars themed popcorn.
