Congratulations, Minka!

The Friday Night Lights actress can now add another title to her already impressive resume: cooking school grad. And, an excited Kelly took to Instagram to show off her new diploma.

“I graduated!!!! thank you so much, @jesshiltoncooks for the best 6 months ever!” she captioned the photo with her teacher Jess Hilton at the New School of Cooking in Culver City, Calif.

During the process, Kelly has proudly documented her culinary journey, which has included everything from learning the art of making perfect pasta to how to fabricate a filet to creating a new salad (“I remember a time when I thought the only thing to a salad was iceberg & ranch,” she said in one photo).

So, the only question now is: Minka, can we please be invited to your next dinner party?

Can you image the guy that marries her…and she can cook too

Thank god, an actress who is actually going to a school and learning something rather than trying to sell a fragrance or a makeup line or a book.
