00:00Between her impressive career and work ethic, her effortlessly gorgeous aesthetic, and her
00:05wealth of knowledge on all things lifestyle, people are clamoring for more details on all
00:10aspects of Meghan Markle's life.
00:12Chief among those topics are her food preferences and eating habits, because let's be honest,
00:16she's got health goals, life goals, and squad goals all rolled into one.
00:20Here's what the lady who is marrying Harry eats on the regular.
00:25Juice jolt
00:27While most people rely on caffeine for energy, when that mid-afternoon slump hits, Markle
00:31takes a different approach.
00:32She told Delish that green juice is a, quote, food-as-medicine philosophy for her, and told
00:37Shape that she relies on it and kombucha to help keep her going during long hours on set.
00:42She elaborated on this in an interview with Today,
00:44"'If I blend some apple, kale, spinach, lemon, and ginger in my Vitamix in the morning and
00:48bring it to work, I always find that sipping on that is a much better boost than a cup
00:52of espresso.'"
00:54California love
00:57Growing up in Los Angeles led Markle to embrace fresh, whole foods as a way of life.
01:01As she explained to the lifestyle blog Ice Moon,
01:04"'Californians are so spoiled with our produce there, and my love of simple ingredients prepped
01:08well is completely linked to that.'"
01:11Her California faves?
01:12Chopped salads, sushi, grilled fish tacos, and acai bowls.
01:17Her breakfast favorite
01:20The owner of Revita Size, Markle's favorite Toronto-based fresh juice shop, told E! News
01:24that Markle used to come in multiple times per week for her beloved acai bowls with a
01:29rotating blend of superfoods added in.
01:31Markle also provided her favorite acai bowl recipe to Ice Moon, noting that it's an indispensable
01:37part of her morning routine.
01:40Weekend indulgence
01:41Markle doesn't totally cut herself off from less-than-healthy foods, especially on the
01:46weekends.
01:47Speaking to Delish, she explained that she's come to embrace Canadian specialties like
01:50poutine, which is french fries covered in gravy and cheese curds.
01:54"'That's really good."
01:56She told Ice Moon that macaroni and cheese is one of her all-time favorites, along with
02:00other kid-friendly fare.
02:01"'I throw some frozen peas into it and have this gooey, simple, child-like meal.
02:05I used to cook it for the kids I would babysit, and I always enjoyed feeling like a kid and
02:09eating it with them.'
02:10I'm also not averse to eating tater tots, with ketchup and sriracha."
02:15Kitchen tricks
02:17Markle's love of food and cooking means that she has some fantastic culinary tricks up
02:21her sleeve.
02:22For example, she explained to Delish that she likes to add a squeeze of lemon juice
02:25to steaks before serving them.
02:27She also has a strategy for making a surprisingly rich pasta sauce, slow-cooking a zucchini
02:31for four to five hours, which leads to a, quote, "'filthy, sexy mush.'"
02:36The sauce gets so creamy, you'd swear there's tons of butter and oil in it, but it's just
02:40zucchini, water, and a little bouillon.
02:43Go-to snacks
02:46Speaking with Today, Markle explained that carrots with hummus and crackers is her trifecta
02:50snack.
02:51While the combination may sound surprisingly simple, she says,
02:53"'It satisfies so many senses.
02:56The savory taste, the textural crunch, the unctuousness of the hummus."
02:59She also enjoys making kale chips drizzled with olive oil and sprinkled with Himalayan
03:03pink sea salt, calling them her healthy potato chip alternative.
03:07This girl loves greens so much, she even grills them.
03:10You can grill lettuce and it has the most amazing flavor.
03:13I've never heard of that.
03:14It holds up.
