Daniela Sea

Daniela Sea stars in The Casserole Club, a film about a group of 1960s wives who regularly get together to share good recipes and good food.

Daniela’s character Jerome may enjoy whipping up a mean casserole onscreen, but offscreen Daniela says she doesn’t do much cooking.

Except the occasional vegan casserole, of course.

“I’m not a big fan of oven cooking, and the only casserole-ish thing I’ve ever made was vegan gluten-free lasagna: Brown rice noodles, cashew cheese and heirloom tomatoes and garlic sauce,” Daniela told SheWired.

Do we have to be members of the club to get the recipe for that?

Daniela once said in a PETA vegetarian testimonial, “The meat industry doesn’t want you to think about all the animals they are torturing and killing. And they definitely don’t want you to think about all the diseases related to eating meat. Their only concern is making a profit. Along time ago I made a decision to quit eating meat and dairy products…”

Watch the trailer for The Casserole Club below.

Anne Hathaway Ditches Soy Meat For Pasta And Pizza

Anne Hathaway

Anne Hathaway looks pretty good in a catsuit in the new Batman sequel, The Dark Night Rises.

The actress follows a vegetarian diet and it may surprise some to know she loads up on pasta, an item once mistakenly looked down upon by health foodies because of the carb content, now known to actually be great for controlling hunger due to the body’s ability to digest it more slowly.

“I don’t go the soy-meat route; I have a really plant-based diet,” Hathaway told USA Today. “So I wind up cooking at home a lot. Kale is amazing. Spelt [a kind of wheat] pasta is amazing. I can’t do the white-flour stuff. It makes me really ill.”
