When getting ready to prepare meals for a Mediterranean diet, it's important to make sure the meals fit different dietary needs. Here are some great ideas:

1. Protein Options:

   • Vegetarian/Vegan: Use chickpeas, lentils, or tofu to add protein to your meals.
   • Gluten-Free: Choose quinoa or brown rice instead of couscous.

2. Healthy Fats:

   • If someone can't have olives, they can switch olive oil for avocado oil.
   • For a nut-free option in salads, sprinkle in sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds.

3. Tasty Bases:

   • Zucchini noodles or spaghetti squash can be great low-carb choices for pasta fans.
   • Cauliflower rice is another awesome base for rice bowls.

By adjusting these meal parts, everyone can enjoy delicious Mediterranean dishes while meeting their dietary needs!
