It’s Star Wars Week here in the Starving Chef’s kitchen! With May the Fourth right around the corner, I knew it was time to dawn my Jedi robes and dust off my lightsaber to head back to a galaxy far, far away for some exceptionally delicious treats.
You won’t find Star Wars recipes more authentic than these – I even filmed them all in front of a green screen just to really feel like I was truly a part of the Star Wars universe.
Be sure to check back every day until May 4th – I’ll be updating this post with all of the recipes and then some!
In the meantime, check out my Death Star Cheeseball, copycat blue milk from Galaxy’s Edge, and TIE Fighter Crackers from previous Star Wars Weeks!
Baby Yoda’s Spicy Soup
First up, a more recent addition to the Star Wars universe of food is Grogu’s spicy soup recipe. Inspired by Grogu always sipping on somethin’ in The Mandalorian, this soup is the perfect blend of swamp and spice.
Sarlacc Pit Dip
Perfect for any themed party or gathering, this Sarlacc Pit dip captures the essence of the feared Sarlacc with playful ‘teeth’ and ‘tentacles’ that are sure to amuse and delight your fellow fans. Get ready to take an intergalactic trip to Tatooine and back with every bite!

Ronto Wrap Stackers
Transport your taste buds to the edges of the galaxy with these Copycat Ronto Wraps from Batuu, featured in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge. I whipped up Mini Ronto Stackers, a bite-sized take on the iconic Ronto Wraps.

Jars of Sand
I couldn’t resist – jars of sand straight from Tatooine. But really, it’s just crushed graham crackers!
Star Wars Bites, Spreads & Snacks
Other items to complete our board include:
- Andorian Jams & Jellies – I used a spicy pepper jelly, grape jelly and apricot preserves
- Spiced Leathermeat – for our spread I used teriyaki jerky
- Mandalorian Oranges – I imagined the real life equivalent to be similar to a kumquat
- D’il Pyykkle – use a mix of sweet and tangy gherkins
- Apple slug sauce – I dove into our reserves and pulled out a jar of apple butter for this
- Moleculary Agitated Cheese – I used dehydrated Parmesan crisps as “moon cheese”
- Dehydrated Vegetable Protein Straw – fun flavors of crispy veggie stix
- Ration Crackers – buttery crackers, whole grain crackers, and fig sourdough crackers
- Lego Star Wars Wookie Cookies – cannonically accurate Wookie Cookies!
- JarJar’s Fruit Balls – dragonfruit cut with a melon baller
As we wrap up our Star Wars Week extravaganza, we’ve journeyed across the galaxy, from Jakku to Batuu, and brought back an array of dishes that would make any Rebel proud.
Our galactic feast has everything from the spicy depths of Baby Yoda’s favorite soup to the iconic Blue Milk, offering something for every Star Wars fan to relish. Whether you’re throwing a big viewing party for the latest episode or just bringing a bit of the Star Wars universe into your everyday meals, these recipes are sure to add some fun and flavor to your adventures.
