While it is true that most celebrities follow a healthy lifestyle, they are humans after all – they also indulge in burgers and Mexican food from time to time.

 

Here is a list of celebrities’ favorite comfort foods and recipes to recreate at home.

 

#1 Chris Pratt

Chris is known for his unbelievable body transformation. “I actually lost weight by eating more food, but eating the right food, eating healthy foods.” Reportedly, he consumes 4,000 calories a day and lots of water, combined with insane trainings.

But while he must eat things like kale chips, when it comes to what he really loves, he chooses meat in all shapes and sizes.

#2 Gal Gadot

What does Wonder Woman eat in a day? Gal Gadot’s main purpose is to make sure her daughters eat healthy so she starts with a hearty breakfast comprised of eggs, fruit, green smoothies, and coffee.

The main meals in the family consist of fish and chicken, as well as lots of cooked or raw vegetables. When it comes to snacks she chooses fresh fruits & veggies and avocado toast. The former Miss Israel doesn’t restrain herself from burgers, chocolate, or ice cream but she is all about portion control.

For breakfast, she chooses scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast with coffee and OJ on the side or, under the influence of her British boyfriend Zayn Malik, baked beans. When it comes to sweet treats, Gigi’s favorite is Grasshopper Pie ice cream.

#4 Jason Derülo

The singer used to eat four bananas a day when he was in college because they were cheap and he lived on a budget.

#5 Jennifer Lopez

The days when pizza was J.Lo’s favorite food are over. Today, the 47-year old star is very serious about her food. She only eats fresh, organic, nutritious, well-balanced foods based on protein. The singer/actress also avoids booze and the only processed food she consumes is protein powder.

#6 The Rock

In order to have a muscular body like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson you need to eat plenty of meat. Sirloin, chicken, and bison meat are on his daily menu, combined with either rice or baked potatoes and fresh salad.

Instead of coffee, the sexiest man alive opts for fruit-flavored energy drink powders plus 3 gallons of water a day! Along with his meat-based diet, Johnson works out five days a week for 75 minutes a day.

Kylie Jenner loves candied yams so much that she even featured them in the first episode of “Cooking with Kylie”. She also enjoys Mexican food, sushi, and Twizzlers.
