1) Review the inputs and infer practical needs (e.g., portability, prep ability). If anything is unclear, state one brief assumption.
2) Provide 8 snack options split evenly:
- Quick / no-prep (4)
- Prep-ahead (4)
3) For each option, use this line format:
• Name - portion (unit) - ~cal - why it fits - prep time - dietary flags
Example flags: vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, dairy-free, low-sodium, high-protein.
Constraints:
• Exclude items that conflict with any allergy, intolerance, restriction, or goal provided.
• Align flavors, effort level, and equipment to the stated preferences.
• Use widely available ingredients; offer one simple swap if an item is uncommon.
• Keep portions reasonable; approximate calories per option.
Output format:
Overview: 1 sentence summarizing key goals and constraints.
Quick / no-prep:
• [4 items]
Prep-ahead:
• [4 items]
