medtran49 "Luau" and "Lau Lau" two totally different dishes.
For the Lau Lau, yes, if you can get Taro Leaves you could create the Lau Lau and the final step of wrapping it in Ti Leaves could be sub'd for Banana Leaves, not quite the same flavor profile, but I do that with my Kalua Pork.
As to Luau, this is made only with Taro Leaves (or sometimes referred to in Hawaii as Luau Leaves) and then the flavorings, into for lack of a better term, a stew. Usually Luau is made with Octopus or Calamari or Chicken, Beef or even Pork... and as I mention to The OMWC it can go totally Vegetarian and still be ONO!!!

I was actually just writing in general about leaves that can be used to wrap foods for cooking. Nothing more.
 
Last night’s dinner, sweet potato bowls with tabbouleh, sauerkraut, and a hummus-based garlic dill sauce. Sounds weird, but I promise it works together really well. One of the few vegan meals my husband will eat without complaining.

I do enjoy getting together ingredients in the last chance salon and making them into something tasty that may have ended up in the bin otherwise, hats off 😊
 
Deja vu all over again. I am on somewhat soft food for a few days, and I love these airport cheese enchiladas. The only bad thing is that this place gives you way too much food, and you really can't take it home for another meal.
