Pay the Farmer, Not the Pharmacy

Quarter, Quarter, Half or The Balanced Plate, Part 3: The Midday Plate — Lunch That Works

Meera & Ashok Vasudevan

A sad desk sandwich. Fast food grabbed between meetings. Or worse—skipping lunch entirely and crashing by 3pm. For working people everywhere, lunch is where good intentions meet brutal schedules. Convenience wins, balance loses.

In Part 3 of "The Balanced Plate" series, Ashok and Meera tackle the midday meal—the one that determines whether your afternoon is productive or a fog of fatigue and cravings. The secret? A little planning goes a long way.

This episode covers: why lunch affects your afternoon energy more than coffee ever will, the simple "bowl formula" that makes Quarter Quarter Half easy, global lunch ideas from Asian rice bowls to Indian daal-rice to Mediterranean grain salads, and meal prep strategies that take 30 minutes on Sunday and save you all week.

Stop letting lunch happen to you. Start building it.
