None! Rabbits are not like carnivores, who eat one big meal and then stay full on it for awhile before needing more food. Instead, rabbits are herbivores and grazers: they nibble off-and-on all day long.

A rabbit's stomach should never be empty: food should be working its way through the digestive system at all times. Rabbits can't safely fast like many other animals can: even before surgery, they should be eating. Don't ever keep food away from your rabbit, because this can make your rabbit seriously (deathly) ill.

The best way to keep a rabbit healthy is to make sure he has access to grass hay at all times: this way, he can nibble whenever he likes, off-and-on throughout the day and night. Not every strand of grass is good, so the rabbit will root through what you give him, and then the next day you can take away the old hay and replace it with fresh new hay.

Aside from hay, you can give your rabbit pellets, and fresh dark leafy greens. You can either give one meal of these foods per day, or two meals. Feed your rabbit in the early morning, and/or the evening -- that's when a rabbit is most active and hungry.
