"Hannah Neeleman, the face of the lifestyle brand Ballerina Farm and "tradwife" influencer known for cooking elaborate meals from scratch, doesn't overthink lunch. "It's super simple," Neeleman told Business Insider. Most days, the 35-year-old entrepreneur and homesteader prepares a simple, balanced meal consisting of a carb, a lean protein, and some vegetables for herself, her husband, Daniel Neeleman, and their eight homeschooled kids."
"For carbs, Neeleman tends to make potatoes, pasta, rice, or quinoa. "I make bread a few times a week, so if it's a bread day, then we have bread as well," she said. For protein, it's usually steak or a roast - living on a cattle farm, there's no shortage of frozen meat- and the veggies are sourced from their garden."
Hannah Neeleman prepares simple, balanced lunches daily for her husband and eight homeschooled children, typically choosing a carbohydrate, a lean protein, and vegetables. Carbohydrate choices include potatoes, pasta, rice, quinoa, and homemade bread when she bakes. Protein is usually steak or roast from their cattle farm, and vegetables come from their garden. The family picked up the meal routine while living in Brazil and continues it as a practical habit. Dietitians and nutrition researchers support minimally processed, whole-food diets emphasizing high-fiber produce, lean protein, and healthy fats while minimizing ultra-processed foods. Protein supports muscle maintenance and metabolic health, and fiber aids digestion.
