Sure! Here are five different ways you can adapt recipes for special diets:

**Substitute Ingredients**: If a recipe calls for something you can’t have, like dairy or gluten, look for alternatives. For example, use almond milk instead of regular milk or gluten-free flour instead of wheat flour.

**Adjust Seasoning**: Sometimes, special diets can limit certain ingredients, like salt or sugar. You can enhance flavors with herbs, spices, or citrus instead. It keeps the dish tasty without straying from the diet.

**Portion Control**: For diets that focus on calorie intake, you can simply adjust the portion sizes. Make smaller servings or balance out the meal with more veggies to keep it filling without going overboard.

**Cook Methods**: Change how you cook things! Instead of frying, try baking, steaming, or grilling. This can make a dish healthier and fit better into a special diet.
