  • - I'm Martha Hunt and this is everything I eat in a day.

  • (whimsical music)

  • The first thing I do when I wake up, on a good day,

  • is I meditate, but I'm not a big morning person,

  • so most likely I'm rushing after snoozing my alarm a bunch,

  • and I'll go make a matcha.

  • So I'll make a matcha almond latte,

  • which is matcha mixed with almond milk.

  • I'll probably have something light,

  • 'cause I'm usually in a hurry,

  • so I'll do something like a toasted English muffin

  • with almond butter on it,

  • and if I'm feeling really decadent,

  • then I'll ad this almond butter

  • that's called Jem Cinnamon Maca Almond Butter,

  • and that is stuff is crack, it is so good.

  • It just adds a bit of sweetness.

  • There's coconut sugar in it,

  • so it's a little bit better for you than normal sugar,

  • but it's delicious.

  • Ooh, my go-to hangover breakfast is definitely

  • an egg and cheese and avocado, or just a burger.

  • I love a burger after a hangover.

  • There's this place in Tribeca, Au Cheval,

  • they have really good burgers.

  • Everyday is different, but if I do workout,

  • I try to fit it in in the morning,

  • so I'll usually probably have my matcha,

  • maybe a banana with peanut butter or Greek yogurt,

  • then I'll hit the gym,

  • because I don't like to have too much

  • on my stomach while I'm working out, and I'll probably do

  • a more substantial breakfast afterwards,

  • like an egg and cheese and avocado wrap.

  • I don't cook a lot.

  • Postmates is my best friend.

  • I aspire to be more of a cook in 2020.

  • I'm really working on that.

  • A typical lunch for me would be,

  • there's this place called Le Botaniste,

  • I'm not sure if I'm saying that right,

  • and they have a really good plant-based vegan chili,

  • and there's, it's brown rice, beans, quinoa,

  • and it's really hearty and it's all plant-based,

  • but I end up mixing in a lot of white cheddar,

  • so that sort of defeats the point of it being vegan.

  • I think that it's a really good, healthy,

  • substantial lunch to keep me going throughout the day.

  • The thing with my eating habits,

  • I feel like I just really listen to my body,

  • and one thing I've noticed,

  • if I eat healthier, I also crave healthier foods.

  • It's tough sometimes when I travel.

  • I usually look for something on the menu

  • that is full of vegetables,

  • so I feel really like, hydrated.

  • I love carbs as well.

  • I'm not afraid of carbohydrates.

  • Midday, or not even midday, I would say around 5:00 p.m.,

  • I like to have a good snack,

  • and I usually crave something really salty,

  • so at some point in my day,

  • I'm probably having a cheese board,

  • and if that's not available to me,

  • then I'll have hummus or olives

  • to satisfy that like, need for salt.

  • I just love salt.

  • I would say I'm a pretty big snacker,

  • but mostly around that time that's before dinnertime,

  • because I start to get really hangry

  • and I have to immediately like, fill my body with food.

  • It's like whatever is in front of me.

  • Do you know a lot of relationship fights happen

  • because of blood sugar levels?

  • I'm pretty sure that's a fact.

  • Like people are just hungry and they fight,

  • and then they get divorced.

  • I don't really think of them as cheat meals.

  • Personally, I like to eat a really like, decadent meal

  • at night, so usually for my dinner I'm having

  • either pasta or I'm having Mexican food.

  • Last night I had Greek food.

  • I like to eat a really filling dinner at night.

  • Ooh, what's my go-to pasta?

  • Probably, I love a good rigatoni that has sausage

  • and peas mixed in, like a thick, creamy tomato sauce.

  • I love pasta.

  • It makes me sleep better.

  • I feel like I sleep really well after a big bowl of pasta.

  • I try to avoid packaged foods, but I still eat them.

  • I don't love a lot of weird meats.

  • I keep it pretty basic when it comes to meat.

  • I like a lot of grilled fish,

  • grilled chicken, fried chicken.

  • I like steak once in a while,

  • but I don't eat red meat a ton.

  • I would say eat red meat maybe once every few weeks even.

  • My go-to meal to cook would be

  • Ina Garten's Engagement Chicken.

  • It's a roast chicken.

  • It has this white wine sauce,

  • and I make it with mashed potatoes,

  • and that is like my go-to for a really satisfying meal.

  • I get really into salads.

  • I think salads are really fun 'cause you can get creative.

  • You can literally just throw whatever

  • is in the fridge into the salad,

  • and I love making my own salad dressing recipes,

  • so although I do not cook, I love making a salad dressing,

  • and I like using balsamic, olive oil,

  • a French grainy mustard, garlic, salt, pepper,

  • and a little bit of lemon,

  • and it's my favorite salad dressing,

  • and it works kind of on any lettuce.

  • My all-time favorite dessert would be creme brulee.

  • Or ice cream, 'cause that's easy,

  • you could just keep it in the freezer all the time.

  • Specifically, hazelnut gelato.

  • I like it because the fattiness of the hazelnuts

  • really comes through in the ice cream, and it's delicious.

  • And that's everything I eat in a day.

  • Thank you, guys, for watching.

  • (bell dinging)

  • (whimsical music)

- I'm Martha Hunt and this is everything I eat in a day.
