    I usually have lunch. A good mix of protein and some carbs. Unless you are a high level athlete, eat whatever you prefer.

    Well a protein, carb and healthy fat.
    If i workout in the morning i dont eat until lunch. I workout 930-1030

    If its an afternoon workout 2-3 pm i eat dinner at 5-6pm. There is no need to eat right after a workout. Or before either. My breakfast is my meal before morning workout and my lunch is my meal before an afternoon workout

    Unless you are elite athlete or bodybuilder that has to eat 6 times a day because they burn so many calories or need to really bulk and need to fuel all the time.
