What The Bachelorette's Ashley Hebert Eats (Almost) Every Day

Hebert eats small meals throughout the day, rather than the traditional 3-meals-a-day model. “I eat when I’m hungry and don’t when I’m not,” she says. “It just happens that the foods I love most are nutrient dense.”

While she’s wooing the hearts of 25 hot men on ABC’s The Bachelorette, America’s new sweetheart Ashley Hebert likes to try to keep things healthy. “Everyday I eat cottage cheese with fruit, like mango or mandarin oranges,” she says.

Ashley Hebert is a self-proclaimed fruit smoothie addict! “I throw anything healthy into a blender and make a fruit smoothie, or a protein shake,” says the tenacious TV personality.

What is Ashley Hebert’s favorite food? She loves to put together large salads filled with nuts, fruits, eggs and lean meat.

The fun-loving reality star admits she has a sweet tooth. One guilty pleasure Hebert can’t live without? “Red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting or anything chocolate!” she reveals.

The lucky television cutie has been all over the world while shooting The Bachelorette. Ashley’s favorite type of food is Thai, so when she found out they were going to Thailand, she was excited to finally try authentic Thai cuisine.

“Every dish I had was exceptional, whether it was Pad Thai, or green curry,” Hebert says. “It exceeded my expectations and made me appreciate all that goes into making such flavorful dishes.”

Ashley finds that teaching high-energy dance classes puts her in the best shape. “I also swear by Les Mills Body Pump weight lifting class,” the beautiful bachelorette reveals. “It does wonders to your body!”

With such a busy schedule, did she find time to work out while shooting The Bachelorette? “I ate a lot more than I usually do and did not work out. I probably went to the gym twice in two months!” Hebert admits. “This is very unlike me! At that point, there were other things more worthy of my energy…twenty-five studs!”

So which stud will Ashley choose as her husband-to-be at the final rose ceremony? “I can’t give away all my secrets!” she exclaims. Guess we’ll just have to tune in to the finale tonight to find out, at 8/7c on ABC.
