Project scope
What is the main goal for this project?

The most recent research is all about nutrition and plant based blue zone type approach for increasing longevity and preventing age related chronic illness. With the constant advancement of health research, it is important for us to stay up to date with our menu and the nutritional information on which it's based. As retirement home operators, we're concerned with the dietary requirements of seniors, so the goal is for this menu to meet those needs as well as catering specifically to brain health. The menu should also strike a good balance between different types of protein.

We want to use this opportunity to develop a 5 week menu that provides meal options based on the latest in seniors' health research, along with preparation sheets for our staff on how to prepare and plate the recipes.

Through this collaboration, we would like to develop a 5 week menu plan that contains three key elements:

(1) menu options suiting the nutritional needs of senior residents (with a focus on brain health)

(2) great tasting food that fits our budget

(3) preparation sheets with recipe, preparation, and plating guidelines for staff
