Adding adverbs on top of an adjective

Sometimes you can see a noun with a whole lot of words just before it that describe it. You can pile adverbs on top of adjectives that already describe a noun, like in this sentence:

The adjective ‘cooked’ in this sentence is used to tell us extra information about what type of meals I don’t like eating. But, on top of that, the adverb ‘quickly’ is used to add extra information about the adjective itself. How fast are the meals cooked that I don’t like? They are cooked ‘quickly’.
