Mona Meighan has a doctorate in Education and has taught classes and developed curricula for adults and children for the past 35 years. She became aware that many people, including herself, ignore lunch by skipping it entirely, eating junk food in place of lunch, or spending too much money purchasing lunches from restaurants. When her son suddenly died at the age of 26 from undiagnosed diabetes, resolving the lunch dilemma became her personal focus. Mona wrote this book as a guide to help others develop healthier habits for lunchtime and to help answer the question "What Are You Doing for Lunch?" without the guesswork of figuring out where to start. A portion of the proceeds from the book are donated to non-profit organizations in honor of her son to support enlightened awareness of providing healthy, economical lunches.
