so this was all done at the same time as that nights dinner (tofu cauliflower curry) and two prepped weeknight dinners (red lentil curry) for two adults and a pre-schooler, all of which took about 4 hours with breaks to eat dinner, wash a few dishes, help with a mini tantrum, read a bedtime story, and use the bathroom, so maybe 1.5-ish hours just for the lunches (not including the 3 hours hydration time for the farinata batter).
