🍳 SMART COOKIES – COOKERY PROGRAMME 🍕🍜🍎
Alhamdulillah, what an amazing few weeks it has been for our girls! 🌟
Through our Smart Cookies Cookery Programme, organised by Our Girlington in association with Masjid-e-Umar, the girls have had a fantastic opportunity to get into the kitchen, learn new skills and prepare some absolutely delicious food! 👩🍳
From homemade pizzas, tasty noodles and delicious fruit crumbles to soups and other wonderful dishes, the girls have enjoyed learning how to prepare and cook a variety of foods from scratch.
As part of the programme, the girls were also taught about the Sunnah of eating and living healthily, including learning about Sunnah foods and the eating habits and guidance of our beloved Prophet Muhammad ﷺ. This helped them understand that Islam encourages us to look after our health, eat with balance and moderation, and appreciate the blessings Allah has given us.
The girls have learnt much more than just cooking. They have developed confidence, independence, teamwork, kitchen safety, healthy eating habits and practical life skills that, InshaAllah, will benefit them for many years to come.
Most importantly, they really enjoyed themselves, learnt through hands-on experience and can be extremely proud of what they produced. The food certainly looks amazing! 😋👏
A huge well done to all the girls who took part, and a special thank you to everyone who helped organise and deliver the sessions. ❤️
