In 2014 she launched Preserve, a lifestyle website that, among other things, dishes out food-related homemaking tips.

She also has her own food blog, So Delushious, where she shares the most crave-worthy recipes straight from her own cookbook as well as others. Everything that she shares on her Instagram account is true #foodporn.

Emma Stone

Oh, Emma Stone, how we love you. Stone recently came out and said that baking is actually a way for her to manage her anxiety and we totally get it. She finds cooking to be a passion of hers as well as therapeutic. Andrew Garfield, Emma’s boyfriend said during an interview with Vanity Fair that Emma is considering opening her own bakery. Uhh, yeah, I would wait in line all night for the grand opening!

Eva Longoria

Eva Longoria is an inspiration to so many women out there and it makes sense, she’s strong, witty, smart, gorgeous, determined and the list could go on forever. But Eva is also an incredibly talented chef which is why she launched her own cookbook, Eva’s Kitchen: Cooking with Love for Family and Friends. Her cookbook really takes readers on a “culinary journey” where she outlines her love to eat, the recipes she adores and how they trace her life story.

Freddie Prinze Jr

When you hear the name Freddie Prinze Jr, you don’t think amazing chef and incredible foodie but it’s true. He released his first cookbook this summer, Back to the Kitchen, it’s all a combination of his mother’s home cooking and cooking tips he picked up during his acting career. I mean, he even went to culinary school!

Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth Paltrow loves cooking so much that she penned her own cookbooks, It’s All Easy (2013) and My Father’s Daughter (2011). While you may think everything comes easy to her, she actually works incredibly hard and her recipes are not that easy actually. They require a lot of skill and determination, something the actress is certainly full of.

Harry Styles

Ah, the dreamboat that is Harry Styles. Pinch me, I think I’m dreaming. Anyways, this talented singer loves food! He finds cooking relaxing and really enjoys making pizza from scratch, in fact he’s perfected the art. Invite me over to try a piece any time, said every woman on the face of the Earth.

Hilary And Haylie Duff

The Real Girl’s Kitchen (blog and cookbook too) is a show that follow Haylie Duff’s antics serving up recipes, stories and the best adventures. Haylie is an incredibly talented chef and sister, Hilary, makes serious attempts and successes too. Must run in the family.

Jessica Alba

Is there anything Jessica Alba can’t do? Is there? Gah, this woman is sheer perfection. And get this, she loves, loves, loves food and eating as much as she can. How she manages to stay so thin is just annoying after she eats so darn much but hey, props to yah, girl. Get this, Alba also adores spicy food! It’s like she’s pining after my own heart.

Jessica Biel

The incredibly talented Jessica Biel also loves to cook for herself and for her lovely family. She does a lot of her own cooking and tries to base the meals around fish and lean meats with vegetables – one word, yum.

Julia Roberts

This Oscar winning actress loves food and loves cooking. Two of my favorite things too. But she’s also a Global Ambassador for the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves. The alliance has a goal of helping 100 million homes adopt clean and efficient stoves and fuels by the year 2020. Roberts urges people to be more conscious of their cooking habits.

Kris Jenner

Kris Jenner knows her way around the kitchen and her kids love it. There’s nothing like mom’s home cooking and we’re so excited that she shared her tips with us mere mortals. Jenner’s cookbook, In the Kitchen with Kris: A Kollection of Kardashian-Jenner Family Favorites, has almost 70 recipes that are the centerpiece of the Kardashian-Jenner family tradition.

Lauren Conrad

The Hills and Laguna Beach star is also a master chef. Conrad has her own cooking blog, Recipe Box, which also highlights other tips not food related, like wardrobe and travel.

Lea Michele

I have a serious girl crush on Lea Michele, she is down-to-earth, crazy talented, kind, and passionate in all aspects of life. Lea is also quite conscious of what she puts in her body, her health comes first which is why she makes it a priority to eat fresh, nourishing meals. In her book, Brunette Ambition, chapter 4 is titled, “For the Love of Food”, where she shares some of her favorite go-to meals.

Matthew McConaughey

Matthew McConaughey is all about eating right and staying fit. in 2005, he even founded j.k. livin which is a foundation encouraging kids to make more positive and healthy changes in their lives by exercising more and eating smarter. McConaughey is also known to bring chefs to his house and to show families just what they can do to cook healthier meals at home. He also partnered with the NFL’s Play 60 initiative to encourage kids to be more active.

Nina Dobrev

If you follow Nina Dobrev on Instagram or Twitter then you’ll see this star loves food and loves cooking. She’s always sharing recipes that she’s trying out or just sharing photos of something she cooked and it looks mouth watering. She has combined a vegan diet and yoga to get that tone and lean look everyone wants.

Sarah Michelle Gellar

Sarah Michelle Gellar slays in everything she does! (Pun intended.) She recently launched her own line of baking and food decorating kits, Foodstirs. Moreover, a portion of the proceeds from each sale will also go to charity. Now that’s just incredible. She was looking for more of artificial-free mix when cooking and baking and wants to bridge the gap between inspiration and execution, especially when cooking with her family. Sarah is a firm believer that the time spent in the kitchen with her family strengthens their bond and we totally agree. Plus it helps that her husband, Freddie Prinze Jr, is an incredible chef!

Scarlett Johansson

Scarlett Johansson is a very popular actress and singer but she’s also a food lover. Johansson even opened up her own popcorn shop in France. Be sure to stop on by if you’re ever in France because popcorn is good any time of the day.

Taylor Swift

Our home-gurl T. Swift is a notorious cat lady, insane party planner, an incredible best friend, a bit of an actress and uhh, oh yeah, she can sing your pants off. Plus she’s a lover of foods. I mean, who isn’t? Take a look at Swift’s Instagram account and you’ll see her crazy food addiction as she shares pictures of delicious treats, recipes and her even stronger addiction to coffee. She sounds just like every other normal person out there expect for the fact that she’s about 200 million dollars, give or take.
