It would be great to have a field/category for "goes well with" or "make a meal" to link recipes that work well together for a full meal.

I guess we could do this. I'm hesitant to add to many more categories as I think that they may start to get overwhelming after a while (for this reason I already have preference setting to allow you to make parts of the recipe card interface you don't like go away). As to the "link recipes" part, I'd suggest using the "Add recipe as ingredient..." feature to make menus/meals out of multiple recipes for now. I designed this with e.g. pie crust recipes in mind, but it works fine for putting together menus/meals. I've been thinking about adding another UI for this -- something like "Create meal" or "Create menu" that would make this feature more obvious. Anyway, I'm still not sure what I'd want the UI to look like around this so I don't plan to implement soon, but I'm open to ideas.
