Recipe Index : The page templates list covers this page templates which can be found in pages list on editor screen. When you choose “Recipe Index” template from editor then you become eligible to create index page. This index page allows you to use genesis widgets to display featured posts. The widgets helps you to pick best categories to display recipes or other blog posts. Apart from that, you can choose image size, post view style, image position, number of posts, all or specific category.

Other Features : StudioPress Food Blog Theme
Custom Homepage : What you see in live demo is a widgeized homepage with multiple content blocks. Each section in home demo is added using custom genesis plugins. The frontpage has 3 sections : Home Top, Home Middle and Home Bottom.
The top of the homepage sections shows a slider. This slideshow is added using genesis custom slider plugin.The other sections show “Featured Post” entries like recipes, blog posts etc. These sections are managed with “Genesis Featured Posts” widget.
Genesis widgets are so powerful as they gives you freedom to choose title, grid layouts, thumbnails size, excerpt, total posts and more. Foodie Pro Theme homepage is very flexible and that’s why it won’t show you pagination bar like traditional blogs. But you can add link to blog page using text widget.
