Eating+for+the+Team



= Eating for the Team = Most professional athletes are on the road all the time. Though they are trying to eat healthy, traveling means they have to eat many meals in fast-food restaurants. You are a dietician for a professional baseball team. You need to develop a diet where the team can eat out in a healthy way, yet also eat economically. Make sure to include proper proportions of all the food groups in a varied, low-fat menu that costs less than $35 per player each day. The plan should cover breakfast, lunch, and dinner for a one-week road trip. **Include caloric and nutritional information that reflects the special needs of athletes.** You will create a spreadsheet of meals, as well as several graphs to display nutritional information. Your plan will be submitted to the local professional baseball team. RESOURCES:
