Healthy Cooking Wins: Chicken Pesto Pasta Salad Day at Beyond Fun!
There’s something special about cooking together, especially when it’s healthy, hands-on, and everyone has a role to play. Today at Beyond Fun, our kitchen turned into a teamwork zone as we prepared a fresh and tasty Chicken Pesto Pasta Salad from start to finish.
Participants jumped in with enthusiasm, helping to mix ingredients, follow steps, and practise kitchen routines in a supportive and inclusive way. Along the way, we focused on simple healthy cooking tips, like choosing fresh ingredients, balancing flavours, and building a meal that feels good and tastes great.
The best part? Watching everyone work as a team. There was turn-taking, encouraging words, lots of smiles, and that proud moment when the final dish came together. And of course, the taste test was a highlight; everyone loved trying what they made!
Cooking sessions like this support more than just meal prep. They build confidence, independence, communication skills, and life skills while creating a relaxed space for connection and fun. Today’s session was a perfect reminder that healthy food can be exciting, social, and full of joy.
Well done to everyone for giving it a go, supporting each other, and making today’s cooking session such a success!
