This is what Jennifer Aniston eats in a day

What does the actress eat to stay in shape?

Jennifer Aniston has been a mainstay in the TV and film world for years. In 1994, the actress achieved world-wide fame as Rachel Green in the hit series Friends. Twenty-five years later, she still looks great. What is her secret to looking youthful and fit at the age of fifty? In her own words, the actress loves sports – strange, but true – and she also follows a strict diet. Curious about what she eats? This is on her list of food faithfuls.

This is how the actress retains her youthful appearance.

Breakfast

Jennifer Aniston does not normally start her day with the same breakfast, alternating between several meals to keep things interesting. For example, she often chooses from a protein shake, avocado and eggs, gluten-free muesli with a banana or oatmeal with proteins. Yes, really! Jennifer tells Elle that she adds protein to her oatmeal to feel fuller longer in the morning. She boils the egg and then stirs the egg whites into her oatmeal. According to Jen, it gives the oats a creamy texture. Um…we’ll skip!

Lunch

Jennifer’s lunch is a bit more monotonous than her breakfast. The actress almost always opts for a salad with lots of vegetables and protein. Although she tries to vary her lunchtime meal with different vegetables and protein sources, this meal seems like it can get a bit boring over time. Yet Jennifer swears by this and rarely deviates from this lunch.

Dinner

If you were expecting her dinner to have a little more excitement, apologies for letting you down. Her dinner actually looks similar to her lunch. Jennifer ensures she continues to get enough vegetables and protein in the evenings. She eats lots of raw vegetables, hard-boiled eggs, butter lettuce and pulled chicken. According to Jennifer, it also helps to prepare her meals in advance.

Snacks

As you probably expect, Jen’s snacks are also healthy. They mainly consist of apples and nuts or peanut butter. These create the perfect combination of carbohydrates, healthy fats and protein and are also easy to carry.

Cheat meal

Jennifer almost never commits a food sin, but if she does, she prefers to eat a large plate of pasta. Her favorite pasta meal is a healthier variant of pasta carbonara. The actress makes it with a turkey fillet sauce, egg, parmesan cheese and water. She also omits oil, butter or cream. We prefer a different cheat meal but to each his own!
