    If you like cooking, you will undoubtedly run into a situation where you'll have to cook for someone with dietary restrictions. It might be a lifestyle choice like vegetarianism, a religious aversion or certain foods, or food allergies, such as a gluten- or peanut-allergy. Whatever the reason, you'll have to do it at some point so start experimenting now.

    Find a recipe and make the necessary adjustments so that it's friendly to a particular dinner guest's needs. Make a note in your response as to how you adjusted the recipe and what the purpose of the adjustment is. For an example, see the first post below

    To see an example of an adjusted recipe, take a look at the annotated recipe linked here:

    As you can see, it is recommended that the meat in the chili be replaced with soy meatballs. Meat may also be left entirely out of the recipe. If the chili is too thin, you might add cooked lentils to the recipe.

    This recipe was adjusted for vegetarian dinner guests.
