"I was a vegetarian for so many years, but I don't put a label on it now," Stause tells Women's Health. "I try not to eat meat, but I'm not saying that I'm vegetarian or vegan. I love animals, so I try and eat with a conscience…I love coffee. I definitely have coffee every day. What I love for breakfast is eggs. My favorite thing is scrambled egg whites with cheddar cheese and pepper." Eggs are a great choice for a healthy breakfast, experts say. "For somebody on a strict budget, it's a good, inexpensive source of different nutrients and high-quality protein," says Susan Campbell, RD. "When cooking eggs, you also want to stay away from adding additional animal fats like butter, bacon grease and lard because those have saturated fats in them, too. It's better to use olive oil or some kind of plant-based oil instead, and you can jazz up egg whites without adding a lot of animal fat by sautéing them with vegetables, salsa or different herbs."
Stause loves HIIT workouts and resistance training. "She has been killing my programme since we first started," says her personal trainer Ocho. "Her drive, determination and work ethic mean she adapts and destroys everything I put her through. A week of workouts for Chrishell can vary. Her schedule is very hectic, so we get in what we can, and HIIT training is one of the most efficient ways she can build muscle and burn fat at the same time. We do heavyweight and plyometrics, as well as HIIT, so that her body is always moving and so that she never gets bulky, but still gains strength."
Stause has dabbled in fad diets in the past, and says she will never do anything like that again. "I need food," she told New You. "Even if I have to eat healthily, and eat things which aren't super fun, I need to eat. I can not juice. Never in my life will I do that again."
Stause is proud of her culinary skills, especially her pasta dishes. "I haven't really met a pasta that I don't like, but I guess my favorite would probably be bucatini with cracked pepper and Parmesan cheese," she says. "One dish I'm proud of is my spicy shrimp pasta. It's so good and has a little kick to it. I'll do it with whole-wheat noodles, sautéed shrimp, red pepper chili flakes, and a spicier tomato sauce."
"I go to Erewhon a lot and they have this buffalo cauliflower that I'm obsessed with," Stause says. "When life is crazy, I normally have some kind of frozen lasagna. If I'm not in a rush and I can go and eat like a normal human, I go out to dinner. Again, I love fish. I also love sushi and pizza." Cauliflower is commonly used as a sub for rice or potato dishes, and a very healthy option for lunch. "Cauliflower is a heart-friendly vegetable thanks to a plant compound called sulforaphane," says nutritionist Kerry Torrens. "Acting as an antioxidant, sulforaphane reduces the inflammatory damage caused by oxidative stress, a process which plays a central role in the development of heart disease. In this way it helps reduce blood pressure and atherosclerosis. Like broccoli and cabbage, cauliflower's sulforaphane content has a number of health benefits including reducing the risk of cancer. Sulforaphane fights cancer in a number of ways including protecting cells from DNA damage as well as inactivating carcinogens."
