Gwyneth Paltrow has a legen-dairy cooking hack.
The Oscar winner—who founded her health food chain Goop Kitchen in 2021—revealed the unexpected ingredient she recommends using in place of dairy.
“If you want to avoid dairy,” Paltrow, 53, told Today Show cohosts Savannah Guthrie and Carson Daly during a May 27 cooking segment, “one trick that I do is I dice up arugula and I put it in.”
She put her culinary tip to the test while making gluten-free, grain-free turkey meatballs on air, noting that the greens would work as a substitute for the cup of parmesan cheese she used in the Goop Kitchen recipe.
“It sounds weird,” Paltrow assured a stunned Guthrie, “but it kind of adds a nice texture to it, and it’s delicious.”
While the morning show hosts were open to Paltrow’s unconventional replacement, some Today viewers had strong opinions about the wellness guru’s go-to.
“When I don’t have milk for my pancake mix,” one user quipped on Instagram with a shrugging emoji, “I just add lawn clippings.”
