Lesson Details:
·       Initially; Brett may need priming to follow his food choices and an explanation for why he may not have certain meals. Staff can explain to Brett that because he is an adult now; he needs to make healthy choices. Staff will also tell Brett ahead of time that if he prepares his grocery list appropriately he can earn a dime; and he can also earn a dime for appropriately preparing his breakfast and lunch
Preparing Grocery List
·       Brett will create his grocery list using the food plate visual, template for meal choices, and list of appropriate food options
·       Based on the phase of Brett’s budget program; he will create his three, four, or five day food menu based on the food plate and food options
·       Brett will write in the days of his menu on the top lines of the choice template (ex. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday)
·       He will then chose what he is having for breakfast and lunch for each day having the options in front of him and the appropriate food plate (breakfast or
        lunch) directly above it
·       Brett will look at the food plate and select the one of the food groups and read it aloud (ex. Grains)
·       He will then find the corresponding “Grains” column on the food options list; and write the food item on his choice template
·       Brett will complete this for all breakfast and lunch items for the corresponding number of days (determined by budget program*)
·       He will then check the refrigerator, freezer, and cabinets and place a check mark next to the items he already has at the house
·       Any items WITHOUT a check mark (items he needs) he will then type into a grocery list on his IPhone
Preparing Meals
·       Brett will prepare each meal so that it corresponds with his choices listed on the template
·       Brett will have the appropriate food plate visual out (breakfast/lunch) as he is preparing his meal
·       Based on the specifications listed on the food plate Brett will prepare each meal measuring the correct portion sizes and condiments for his meals
·       Brett will access the measuring cups in the laundry room on his shelf to measure all necessary items. If an item is frozen and is more than one portion; Brett
        will microwave the item and divide it into Tupperware containers. Lean Cuisines staff will help Brett read the nutrition facts to determine portion size; most
        Lean Cuisines are set to be a single serving*
·       Brett should chose fresh vegetables; he can steam them; and place one of the APPROPRIATE condiment selections on them
·       Lean Cuisine should also match the category; NO GRAINS, must be PROTEIN, may have vegetables.
·       Protein lunch items should consist of NON processed meats; such as Rotisserie Chicken, Whole Slices of Ham and Roast Beef, etc.
·       Some items are listed with just a number; that item can be eaten without being measured out; example: 1 apple or 1 banana 
·       THERE IS NO GRAINS FOR LUNCH: I.E. BREAD, ROLLS, BAGELS, ETC.
·       *If Brett does not chose an item for breakfast (ex. Does not pick a dairy) it does NOT transfer into his lunch
·       *Brett may drink water or crystal lite. He may not purchase juice, soda, or chocolate/strawberry milk.
·       If Brett follows his grocery lists throughout the week and earns his dimes, he may purchase a soda and a small piece of candy on Friday for a treat
Condiments:
·       Regular yellow mustard
·       Spicy mustard
·       Hot sauce
·       Vinegar
·       Extra-virgin olive oil
·       Trans-fat-free margarine
·       Natural herbs and spices
·       Low-salt seasoning blends such as Mrs. Dash or Tony Chachere's Salt-Free Cajun Seasoning
Error Correction:
·    If Brett attempts to complete a step incorrectly or skip a step in the task analysis staff will use a gestural prompt to the appropriate visual or item (ex.
      Measuring cup or measurement on visual)
·     If Brett does not respond to the gestural prompt within 5 seconds staff will provide a partial physical prompt for Brett to complete the step independently
