Gwyneth Paltrow's breakfast juice recipes Gwyneth Paltrow's breakfast juice recipes
(12 days later)
Earlier this year, I decided to eat like Gwyneth Paltrow for 10 days and wrote an article about it for New York magazine. I do this sort of thing relatively frequently in my line of work.Earlier this year, I decided to eat like Gwyneth Paltrow for 10 days and wrote an article about it for New York magazine.

To be honest, the diets of celebrities are not usually the veritable party you would imagine. They have all required a strength of soul that I don't have. I went on Greta Garbo's diet and she ate so many beans. I almost died on Jackie Kennedy's diet of one baked potato a day. Every time I write about a diet, I realise how hard it is to live as a celebrity woman. I immediately eat a million toasted cheese sandwiches when I am done and thank God I am not one.To be honest, the diets of celebrities are not usually the veritable party you would imagine.

So I was expecting to experience much suffering for Gwyneth's sake. Already people had made fun of her famously restrictive diet, which eliminates tomatoes, meat, eggs, dairy gluten and deep-water fish. I figured I would do it and feel I had accomplished all that could be accomplished in the dieting world. I would officially be the Shackleton of nutrition.So I was expecting to experience much suffering for Gwyneth's sake.

But I actually loved eating like Gwyneth. I still use her cookbook, a little of which is reproduced below. I loved roasting an entire fish in a vat of salt. I wholly enjoyed eating daikon for the first time. Gwyneth's juices, especially, were amazing. Even now, sometimes, I drink kale juice just for fun. A little self-denial can be pretty tasty. Enjoy.But I actually loved eating like Gwyneth. I still use her cookbook, a little of which is reproduced below. I loved roasting an entire fish in a vat of salt.

The best green juice

Just about as energising as a cup of coffee with none of the letdown, green juice is an incredibly healthy, invigorating way to start your day. Kale is full of calcium and antioxidants and just about everything else. When juiced with a bit of lemon, apple and ginger and a tiny hit of refreshing mint, it turns into a sort of grassy lemonade. No worries if you don't have a juicer: a blender and a strainer do the trick.

Push all the ingredients through your juicer. Alternatively, you can chop all the ingredients and pop them into a powerful blender with 120ml of water, then pass the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer and drink immediately.Push all the ingredients through your juicer.

Cucumber, basil and lime juice
Cucumber, basil and lime juice
This is especially refreshing when you blend it with an additional handful of ice cubes (use a whole lime if you do, as the acid is muted when the juice is cold). Think of it as a detox-friendly mojito. Serves one.This is especially refreshing when you blend it with an additional handful of ice cubes (use a whole lime if you do, as the acid is muted when the juice is cold).

Starting with the basil, juice everything into a glass. Alternatively, you can chop all the ingredients and pop them into a powerful blender with 120ml of water, then pass the mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into a glass. Give it a stir and drink immediately.Starting with the basil, juice everything into a glass.
