Cooking Nutritious Food

Cooking and good nutrition are important skills for young Liberian women. Preparing healthy meals helps keep families and market customers strong, energetic, and ready for work, school, and daily life. Good food is one of the foundations of a healthy home.

A balanced meal should include a variety of foods. In Liberia, many families eat rice as a main food, but it is important to add vegetables, protein, and healthy ingredients. Foods like cassava leaves, potato greens, okra, beans, fish, eggs, and groundnuts help provide the body with strength and important nutrients. Fresh fruits such as bananas, papayas, and oranges also help improve health.
