  2. The chef will be expected to accommodate, within reason, the special dietary needs of friars regularly assigned to the house (i.e., diabetic, gluten-free, dairy-free, etc.).
  3. Accommodate dietary restrictions for special religious holidays, seasons, and feasts (e.g., no meat, smaller/simpler meals on designated days, more festive meals on feast days).
  4. Vary menus to include many different cuisines and avoid fried food more than once a week.
  5. Maintain a general education regarding nutrition (balance of carbohydrates, sugars, vegetables, breads, proteins, fats, etc.) and attempt to use this knowledge in meal planning.

  7. Other duties may be added to this job description by the supervisor as determined by the needs of the community.
