Vegetarian Star

Nothing’s worst than reading a can of “vegetable” soup only to find beef or chicken stock as an ingredient.

But who needs those condensed cans of liquid vegetable animal when you make your own from scratch?

David Moss’ Hollywood & Dine page at Fox 8 News is full of celebrity recipes he created based on his experience with the stars. After interviewing them, Moss heads to the kitchen to create a meal they’d enjoy. He’s whipped up meals in the name of Jessica Alba, Ashton Kutcher, Gwyneth Paltrow and more.

Gwyneth Paltrow is cooking up tacos in this week’s edition of her online newsletter, Goop, but if you’re a grown up, she wants your breath smelling like a crustacean.

Weird.

From Goop:

“The kids can eat black bean and brown rice tacos with guacamole and pico de gallo without hot chili. The grownups can have grilled shrimp, hot sauce…”

Recipes for pico de gallo, seasoned black beans and guacamole are included, as well as a video of Gwyneth demonstrating her thing.

We hear Gwyneth Paltrow is interested in putting yoga into the curriculum at inner city schools.

Before you roll eyes and insert snide remark about making fixing the outdated buildings and designing  programs to raise standardized test scores a priority, it may interest you to know the kids in South Central LA, an area known for violence and poverty, are already bending themselves in pretzels.

Accelerated School, named School of the Year by Time magazine, found these classes raised self-esteem and made students more mellow, which resulted in less disciplinary issues in the classroom, according to Yoga Therapy Web.

The same site mentions a study that found that students’ GPAs have been correlated with the degree of participation in YogaEd, a 36 week children’s yoga program.

Gwyneth will provide the cat-stretch and downward-facing dog.

John Salley will create the menu filled with vegetarian entrees.

And Rachael Ray will set up the gardens in the schoolyard from which food is grown and obtained every semester.

It’s celebrities to the rescue to take back the public school system!

Rahua, products developed from a nut found in the Amazon, is listed as a Goop favorite. The products are vegan, organic and free of parabens, using ingredients such as rahua nut oil, wheat germ protein, aloe vera and vegetable glycerin.

Gwyneth Paltrow has recently shared on her blog, Goop, the diet and fitness regime she adhered to while getting fit for her new role in Iron Man 2.

Paltrow is known for her use of ingredients that, although many vegetarians find as staples, like vegan Mayonnaise, has brought her ridicule and called an elitist.

Ahlanlive took advantage of her latest newsletter entry to mock her diet, citing what Paltrow uses in her world, versus what regular Joe’s use in theirs.

GOOP World: 7am: Wake up, have a green tea
Real World: 7am: Alarm goes off. Unpeel tongue from roof of mouth. Momentarily wish was dead as preferential to getting up and going to work. Hit snooze button.

GOOP World: Post-workout: Kale Juice (kale, lemons, agave nectar, cold water)
Real World: What the hell is agave nectar?

GOOP World: 1pm Lunch: 1 Mountain Valley Wrap, 1.5 tablespoons of Almond Butter, Chopped Dates
Real World: “Hello, is that More? Yeah, can I get a lasagne for delivery, please? Yep, that’s it, thanks. No nothing else.” Pause. “And chips.”

Is your life closer to Goop World or Real World?

Gwyneth Paltrow has given her Goop readers some details about how she got into shape for her latest role as Pepper Pots in Iron Man 2.

Besides the exercises shown in the video below that resemble some sort of dog relieving himself on the fire hydrant, Gwneth’s routine included some vegan wraps smothered in nut butter and kale juice!

Breakfasts consisted of almond milk with fruit, and lunches often had Gwyneth consuming tortilla wraps with almond butter and dates or avocado, tomato, cucumbers and jicama slivers.

Huh?

Jicama is a sweet root plant that resembles a turnip.

It’s cultivated in South America and very popular in Mexican cuisines.

Head on over to Goop to get the wrap recipes.
