The new My Junior Chef Journal has been created to make every part of The Healthy Munchies Cooking Club even more exciting, practical and rewarding.
This personalised A5 ring-binder journal gives each Junior Chef their own place to explore recipes, develop kitchen skills, discover useful food facts, complete challenges and celebrate everything they achieve along the way.
What’s Cooking Inside?
The journal is divided into five flavour-filled sections, each offering something different for young cooks to enjoy.
ChefFile Section
The ChefFile section is all about the Junior Chef behind the apron. It includes a personalised profile card, Junior Chef of the Week awards, Safety Squad and Hygiene Heroes guides and Chef Cam pages for capturing proud cooking moments.
Achievement Tracking Section
Junior Chefs complete practical tasks, record their achievements and collect 15 badge stickers as their cooking skills and food knowledge grow. From preparing ingredients and using kitchen tools to exploring seasonal food, reducing waste and planning a banquet, every badge celebrates something new.
Snack-Sized Extra Challenges Section
The Snack-Sized Extra Challenges section adds even more fun beyond the cooking. Junior Chefs can create their own recipe brand, take part in food-waste missions, complete a rainbow food hunt, run a pop-up kitchen and become a Junior Food Critic.
Knowledge Nibbles Section
The Knowledge Nibbles serve up quick, child-friendly facts and guidance to help Junior Chefs cook smart and stay safe. Topics include safe chopping, eating a rainbow, fruit, vegetable and herb power cards, seasonal food and allergy awareness. They are perfect for dipping into whenever a little extra knowledge is needed.
Recipes Section
The journal includes 14 healthy recipe cards covering aperitifs, starters and sides, mains and desserts. Junior Chefs can make everything from milkshakes, hummus and veggie pizza to smoothie bowls, fruit skewers and showstopper cupcakes. Recipe elevator templates also encourage children to experiment, adapt ingredients and create their own tasty adventures.
Made Especially for Every Junior Chef
Each 3 Michelin Star Registration includes a personalised My Junior Chef Journal, 15 achievement badge stickers and a Junior Chef Skills Training Certificate of Completion.
