In between cruises when you’re pining for the late-night lido deck scene, there’s no better way to escape the quotidian than an island-themed luau. Lining the slow cooker with banana leaves and filling it with seasoned pork can really generate a breezy mood.

To carry the theme, think side dishes with tropical fruits, macadamia nuts, coconut, and rice.

A dash of cocoa powder adds depth and richness to the broth of this easy turkey chili.
