Florida International University Meal Plans for Family of 4 Project

 

This assignment requires you to make a trip to the grocery store. As part of the assignment, you need to submit a photo of yourself (a selfie is fine) at the grocery store where you did the assignment. You also need to provide the name and address of the store.

Your task is to design three 1-day mealplans for a family of four people.

Mealplan 1: A low-cost mealplan. (less than $5/day)

Mealplan 2: An environmentally-friendly mealplan (limited packaging and distance traveled)

Mealplan 3: Your typical mealplan (of things from the store rather than restaurants)

Each mealplan should consider 3 meals: breakfast, lunch, and dinner. For Mealplans 1 and 2, try to have items from different food groups (proteins, grains, fruits, veggies, dairy) according to the USDA food plate (see image)

Each mealplan should have a list of items broken down by meal for the whole day. Mealplans 1&2 should each have a statement of why you think it is low cost or environmental friendly.

Write a 2-3 sentence reflection on your typical mealplan. Is it low-cost? Is it environmentally-friendly? Is it healthy?
