Love the evil mistress/boss idea and having to scramble to stun the cute little ingredients to make a meal! What I think could be fun is to add a supermeal option with more than one ingredient where you combine more than one ingredient and it fulls up a lot more health/hunger. I could definitely see this as a banger multiplayer game with friends too!
Lovely art, hilarious gameplay, a little confusing at first, but super fun when you get the hang of it :)
