Vegetarian Star

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.

A White House Garden Cookbook

A new cookbook is set to roll out this month that features the chefs from the White House sharing favorite recipes created from vegetables from the White House South Lawn garden.

A White House Garden Cookbook keeps Michelle Obama‘s standards for focusing more on plants to reduce childhood obesity and other healthcare issues.

One deliciously sounding recipe features not only plant based protein of garbanzo beans, but a vegetable broth based soup topped with soy sour cream.

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.

Vegan Soul Kitchen by Bryant Terry

Vegan chef Bryant Terry appeared on The Martha Stewart Show today and demonstrated his recipe for Spinach with Ginger and Chile.

The episode was meant to promote Terry’s mentor and local food proponent, Alice Waters‘ new book, In The Green Kitchen.

Part of the fun with trying new recipes is discovering an herb or spice you’ve never worked with fresh before.

Remember when you ditched the spice rack and headed for the produce section to check out those weird, finger looking plants called “ginger?”

Grab Bryant’s recipe featuring fresh chile, ginger and spinach at Martha Stewart.

Xavier Rudd has just released a new album, Koonyum Sun, which probably means he’ll be living off almonds for a few days on tour to promote it.

The vegetarian admits it’s hard to find food in some cities in the U.S., despite a decade of practice.

“I’ve had 10 years of it now so I’ve done my research. I know where to go,” Rudd told Sydney Alive. “But sometimes it still is hard to find things to eat. Especially in Mid-West USA. I’ve gone for days there living off almonds.”

When there are other options besides almonds, Rudd also likes to dabble in rice and dahl.

Even if you aren’t forced to consume almonds for lack of anything better, you may want to check out tamari almonds.

A soy sauced up version of the nut is coated with flavor, with the perfect combination of salt and savory.

You can buy them already made or prepare them yourself.

Bethenny Frankel demonstrates making one of her favorite foods, Brown Rice Breakfast.

Bethenny says she prefers to use soy milk in place of dairy.

“You could use skim milk. I use soy milk. I think it’s a little bit healthier. I don’t like to eat too much dairy,” Bethenny says.

Rock on Bethenny!

This must be what the pregnant Real Housewives of New York City star is eating in place of sausage links in the morning to reduce her bloating problems.

The ingredients are simple: brown rice, almonds, raisins, soy milk, maple syrup, vanilla extract and cinnamon.

Watch the clip to have Bethenny show you how to put them together.
