When it comes to Star Wars, there are A LOT of creatures.
Some are pretty adorable like the porgs, while others are quite scary! And now, you can bring one of the most terrifying Star Wars creatures to your dinner table with the Dianoga Meatballs Recipe!
If you don’t remember what a dianoga is, it’s the slimy, one-eyed space squid that swims around in the Death Star’s Trash Compactor in Star Wars: A New Hope. You can also spot one in Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge near the water fountains!
With this new recipe from the official Star Wars website, you can bring this tentacled creature to the dinner table with the Dianoga Meatballs! Here’s how you make it!
