Question

For Shabbat for all the reasons
Topic: Shabbat meals
Question: Are we obligated to have all three Shabbat meals with bread?

Answer

Shalom u’vracha 

For the first two meals, the night meal and one meal during the day, it is a mitzvah to eat them with bread. 

For the third meal, it is proper to eat bread, but someone who finds it difficult to eat another meal with bread may eat mezonot items (cakes, cookies, etc.), and if even that is difficult for him, he may eat fruit or vegetables.
