Welcome to foodideals.co.uk, an online archive of recipes for all occasions, whether a romantic meal for two, themed garden party, or the in laws coming for Sunday Dinner we will have a recipe to tickle everyone's taste buds.

Eating out has become a big thing in the last twenty years with an increase of disposable income. Television has brought us celebrity chefs who can cook up gourmet meals in minutes all of which is great. But on the other end of the spectrum the rise of the big fast food chain has also increased of the last twenty years, serving up the same of diatribe of heavily processed food, laden with salt , sugar and fat to an unsuspecting public. We know when we have to worry when one of the larger chains removes the word ‘fried’ from its name for fear of health connotations. It has happened.

We are constantly adding new recipes so be sure to revisit soon. Our hints and tips section is currently under development with new articles being added all the time, we also have plans for an ingredient guide, equipment review section and much more. Our newsletter will help you keep up to date with what is happening on the site and the new recipes that have been added. We also have idea for a video tutorial section which is currently in the pipeline. It should be an exciting time so be sure to keep returning back.

We have just created the foodideals blog where we will be posting our ideas, rants and raves about whats happening for us. Please be sure to visit http://www.foodideals.blogspot.com/ for more info.

New Menu Ideas from Foodideals

A well thought out menu brings together all elements of a meal. What ever the meal is, spend some time thinking about what you are going to cook. Pasta as a starter and a curry for a main course is unlikely to work no matter how well they are done.

For a party of friends in the summer our Kebab Kasbah is always a winner as is our indian feast. Kids always love eating outdoors so our summer loving picnics are always a winner with the young ones.
