My family
There are many fans of home cooking among celebrities. Hollywood stars, spoiled by restaurant delicacies, admit that they adore their mother’s cooking on holidays, and they themselves cook well. Julia Roberts and Jennifer Aniston, for example, have their own old family recipes. Both actresses were taught to cook by their grandmothers from early childhood.

David Beckham says he loves to cook meat and every time...
Until recently, the highest paid actress in Hollywood, Julia Roberts, was no longer actively acting in films. The star devotes all his free time to his family.
According to the actress, she does not take her children to McDonald's, but feeds them only homemade food. Three chefs work for the star family, but Julia sometimes cooks herself.
“We have a tradition in our family,” says the actress. – Every Thursday I prepare a festive family dinner myself. When parents, relatives or close friends come to visit us, I turn into the main chef and prepare food according to the old recipes of our family, which were passed on to me by my grandmother.”
So, the slim salad recipe from Julia Roberts .
You will need: 2 green apples, 4 cucumbers, 5 green onions, 1 avocado, 400 g shrimp, olive oil, ground black pepper and 1 lime.
Peel cucumbers, avocados and apples and cut them into cubes, divide the lime into wedges, and finely chop the onion. Mix everything, add boiled shrimp and pour olive oil. When serving, sprinkle with black pepper.
Brad Pitt's ex-wife Jennifer Aniston shared the recipe for her favorite dish that her mother cooked for her since childhood.
For a spinach and pineapple cocktail, take 300 g of pineapple, 200 g of fresh spinach, 2 kiwi. Wash the pineapple and kiwi, peel and cut into large slices.
According to the actress, she does not take her children to McDonald's, but feeds them
Coarsely chop the spinach, place it together with the fruit in a blender and beat thoroughly.
Pineapples contain the beneficial substance bromelain, which helps speed up metabolism and aid digestion. Freshly squeezed kiwi juice improves blood circulation and heals veins.
The green pigment contained in spinach is rich in magnesium, which improves heart function, as well as minerals. They activate proteins and stimulate brain function.
David Beckham claims that he loves to cook meat and whenever the exemplary family man and father of three sons has time, he ties an apron and cooks meat delicacies.
Veal with kiwi is a signature dish of the famous football player. So, take 2 kg of veal, 500 g of kiwi, salt, pepper.
Wash the kiwi, peel and cut into small pieces. Rinse the meat, make cuts-pockets evenly over the entire surface. Place a slice of kiwi into each pocket, add salt and pepper.
Cover the top of the stuffed piece of meat with kiwi pulp and leave overnight. In the morning, wrap in foil and bake in the oven for 40 minutes. Can be served with fresh kiwi.
And another entertaining recipe from the icon of the 90s supermodel Cindy Crawford. For fresh beetroot and pomegranate, take 400g beets, 500g pomegranate seeds, 1 tablespoon honey.
Wash the beets, peel them, cut them into small slices and pass through a juicer. Peel the pomegranate, place the grains in a blender, add beet juice, add honey and blend until smooth.
A mixture of beetroot juice in equal parts with pomegranate or carrot juice is an excellent remedy for strengthening the immune system. But only freshly prepared juice has a healing effect, so drink it right away!
