Gluten-free diets are becoming very popular in our country. Develop a two-day meal plan that is based on a gluten-free diet: one day should be modeled on a typical weekday, and the second day should be modeled on a weekend. Your meal plan should include breakfast, lunch, dinner, and two snacks. Remember that meals should be well-balanced. Please include a restaurant meal in your plan. Your plan must be at least two pages in length, double-spaced, Times New Roman, and 12-point font. Please be sure to cite any references used.

In addition to your two-day meal plan, please write a 100-150 word response to each of the questions below. Please ensure that your responses are written in complete sentences.

1. Do you know anyone who follows a gluten-free diet? If so, what type of medical condition do they have that has restricted them to this diet? If you do not know anyone personally, what types of medical conditions would restrict an individual to this diet?

2. How difficult did you find it to plan the gluten-free meals?

3. Did you have any difficulty planning the gluten-free meal that was eaten out at a restaurant?

4. Were there gluten-free options provided on the menu? If not, what suggestions would you give the restaurant to include gluten-free options on their menu?
