Answer the following questions
What strategies did you use to add texture, color, taste and variety to your menu?
-I tried to keep the big clunky items to a minimum and from there I ended up addingitems that varied in color and textures to even out the menu-I also tried to vary where items were placed within the menu so not too many items thatwere similar were eaten at the same time
How did you bring creativity and challenge your menu?-Usually I make things from the can because it is more convenient and goes with myschedule better. However, for this assignment I prepared fresh vegetables and itemsthat I normally wouldn’t make such as grilled chicken to add to the challenge
What changes did you need to make in order to meet the nutritional requirements?-For the most part my nutritional requirements were good but my sodium intake was toohigh. It almost seemed like I had to look for low sodium components to fit therequirements for that area
What cooking principles you learned in class or lab in did you incorporate in preparingthe dinner meal?-To add variety to the items that you eat-Using different cooking methods to create tastes that enhance the flavor of meals-To use raw ingredients instead of canned or processed goods to produce a better quality meal
List three things you learned in completing this assignment.-It’s really hard to find low sodium food items
-Going away from what is convenient produces a better meal in the end and might beworth it to do more often-Just adding a few healthy snacks during the day can really help in achieving a diet thatmeets nutritional recommendations
