How can i boost my resume?

This might be something you have heard a lot but find something that interests you! It sounds like you like cooking and culinary arts, so take a deep dive into it. Learn more about it and launch a project with results that not only are satisfactory for you but also improve the community. Maybe this is a cooking competition to raise funds for food deserts to have more access to nutritious food, or maybe a cooking club where you take the initiative to launch it, etc. etc. You get the idea. The point is, that a lot of people do a bunch of random clubs in hopes that colleges will be impressed by it, which is not true. Using a passion of yours to tackle a cause, spread awareness, or encourage participation in it while also being something you truly enjoy in the process is not only something that shows initiative, leadership, and a true connection to what you love, but also is also self-fulfilling for you and beneficial for the community. One final piece of advice: if you wouldn't do it normally without college apps in mind, don't launch a project on it. Stay true to yourself and what you value while doing the things you enjoy while also being socially impactful - that's how you build a resume.

Any kind of language clubs look good on a resume. If there are any academic honors societies that you haven't joined yet, I would try to apply! Arts and humanities look good and can boost applications (I've been in choir for 4 years) and are really fun classes!

Community service projects relating to helping combat food insecurity will also look good, or even starting a baking club at school!

Start small but smart: join a cooking club, volunteer at local restaurants or food banks, do online culinary courses, or enter small competitions. Even a few consistent activities show passion and initiative colleges care more about commitment than quantity.
