Menu Planning For 2 Weeks
Hi,
Could any one please help me on (d). I am not really understand what should i answer.
Devise a 2 week menu (Monday to Friday), suitable for children aged 3-5 years that caters for morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, late afternoon snack and drinks. Your menu needs to be suitable for use in a child care setting and include the following:
50-75% of the recommended number of serves for each food group each day A variety of ingredients and textures
A range of foods from different cultures
One red meat-free day per week
Vegetarian options for each meal period
No repetition of menu items (excluding drinks)
You are required to:
a) Present your menu in an attractive, easy-to read format and submit it.
b) Choose an item from your menu that contains an ingredient that may trigger a reaction from a child who has coeliac disease. Submit the recipe for that menu item.
c) Alter the recipe for the menu item so that it would be suitable for a child with coeliac disease.
d) Pick one lunch offering and explain how this meets the Australian Dietary Guidelines.

Re: Menu Planning For 2 Weeks
I'm sorry I can't give you full answers to questions, I can only guide you and provide you with Resources... I've already had to deal with a number of complaints from course providers and RTO's saying that this forum provides too much information for students. Out of my own principles, I cannot give answers, I'm happy to guide you and give you information but you have to form the answer yourself.
