○ Focus: This category will house all content primarily centered on food preparation for lunch.
○ Rationale: Consolidates the core offering – recipes and meal ideas – currently spread across “Recipes & Meal Ideas,” parts of “Healthy Eating,” and “Special Diets”.1 This aligns with the principle of grouping similar content, inspired by thekitchn.com’s dedicated recipe-centric sections like “Meals,” “Ingredients,” and “Dish Types” 2, but tailored specifically to lunch.
○ Potential Sub-categories: By Type (e.g., Sandwiches & Wraps, Salads, Soups, Bowls, Hot Lunches, Kids’ Lunches), By Preparation Style (e.g., Quick & Easy, Make-Ahead, Packable, Office Lunches), By Dietary Need (e.g., Healthy & Light, Low-Carb, Vegetarian, Gluten-Free), By Cuisine Inspiration (e.g., Asian-Inspired, Mediterranean, American Classics).
