Tips & Warnings
Always adventurous, Jolie supplements her diet with protein-rich insects like fried cockroaches and crickets.
Jolie enjoys steamed vegetables and meats. Steaming makes food easy to prepare, prevents loss of essential nutrients through overcooking and eliminates the need for unhealthy additives, like oil and butter.
