YOUR TASTES BELONG ON THE WHEEL
A dinner wheel that starts with your shortlist
The food wheel starts with eight familiar meal ideas, but your shortlist makes it useful. Replace dishes with local restaurants, meals you can cook with what is in the fridge, or a mix of your favourite takeaways. Remove anything unavailable before you spin.
Choosing together? Let everyone add one realistic option, agree on a budget, then spin once. If you are planning meals for the week, remove each selected dish and spin again. You get variety without reopening the whole dinner debate.
Three ways to answer “what’s for dinner?”
The starting dishes are suggestions. The wheel gets more useful when you replace them with options that fit tonight.
Cook from the fridge
List meals you can make with the ingredients already at home: an omelette, vegetable noodles, baked potatoes, or a rice bowl. Add a short note to a label if it helps, such as “Pasta — 20 min”. Spin after you have checked what is actually available.
Settle a takeaway debate
Use restaurant names instead of broad cuisines. Agree on delivery distance and budget, then let each person suggest an option. Give every restaurant one entry if you want equal chances; several similar pizza choices would collectively favour pizza.
Sketch a few meal ideas
Start with five or six dishes you would enjoy this week. Pick one, remove it, and repeat to build a shortlist without duplicate meals. If just one dish remains, you already know the final choice. Write down the plan before replacing your wheel.
Pick at the level where you are actually stuck
A wheel containing “Italian”, “rice”, and a particular restaurant mixes three different decisions. It can still spin, but the result may leave you with more work. Keep entries at the same level: cuisines to explore, restaurants to order from, or specific meals to cook.
If every possible result feels wrong, edit the list before trying again. Add two or three realistic alternatives and remove the dish you have eaten all week. Once dinner is sorted, the chore wheel can choose a small kitchen task, or the yes or no wheel can settle a quick “eat outside?” question.
A FEW THINGS TO KNOW
A few questions before dinner
Can I use restaurant names instead of dishes?
Absolutely. Replace the sample foods with restaurants you are willing and able to visit or order from.
Does the food wheel check allergies or availability?
No. It only picks from your list. Check ingredients, dietary suitability, prices, and opening hours yourself before adding an option.
Can I make a vegetarian or vegan food wheel?
Yes. Replace the sample entries with dishes that fit the way you eat. The wheel treats labels as text, so it cannot check ingredients or filter meals automatically. Build and check your own suitable shortlist before spinning.
Can my friends use the same dinner shortlist?
Use Share this wheel to send a copy of the current title and meals. Friends can open and edit their own version. The link is a snapshot, not a live group vote, and it does not update when you change your list later.
