  8. Preparing occasional meals to be stored and eaten by the friars on the weekend, as needed
The supervisor may add to/change this list of duties and tasks as the needs of the Priory and friars change. General Expectations
  1. The chef will always consider first the health of the friars, cooking tasty, nutritious, budget-friendly and balanced meals using fresh ingredients wherever possible, avoiding canned and processed foods (e.g., instant potatoes, frozen vegetables, etc.).
  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.
  6. Comply with all applicable safety and sanitary regulations.
  7. Other duties may be added to this job description by the supervisor as determined by the needs of the community.
Use of Time at Work and Time Off
