People seem to eat well in the wizarding world.
At the Burrow, Molly Weasley serves delicious meals using a mixture of magic and cooking skill. The house-elves at Hogwarts cook a wide variety of dishes and bake delicious cakes, pies, and eclairs. There is some magic involved, certainly, but the food is not simply created out of nothing. Anything created in that way does not last, but disappears after an hour or two.
The food served at Hogwarts is grown locally (there are vegetable patches near the greenhouses and Hagrid raises chickens). The various dishes are prepared in the kitchens and magically transported up through the ceilings to the tables above.
Normally, the food appears in serving dishes and the students help themselves. For the Yule Ball, however, each person selected a dish from a menu, stated their choice, and it appeared directly on his or her plate.
