She eats more than just lettuce.
Cameron Diaz shared how she prepares her favorite snack of rotisserie chicken nachos in a new cooking video — months after showing off her fridge filled with just salads and wine.
“Hi is Cameron, it’s moi! Welcome back to my kitchen,” Diaz, 51, said in the video shared to her Avaline Wine Instagram account on Thursday.
“Today I’m gonna be making you nachos with chicken, zucchini and corn, and a cilantro cream.”
The “Charlie’s Angels” star explained that she will pair the “easy and organic” one-sheet pan meal with Avaline’s white blend.
“It’s a very crisp, dry white that goes perfectly with any good food,” she said, adding, “The way the citrus notes work together with the cilantro cream? Delicioso!”
Dressed in a casual gray sweater and cozy white sweatpants, Diaz was fresh-faced with minimal makeup and slicked-back hair as she whipped up a batch of garlicky cilantro crema and sautéed green and yellow courgettes.
“I suggest getting a rotisserie chicken at the grocery store that’s already pre-cooked and then just taking it off the bone, kind of like in a shredded situation,” she said, offering a time-saving hack for the protein-packed snack.
She then proceeded to roast corn directly on the flames of her stove until the cob was completely charred.
Once everything was properly seasoned, Diaz layered chips evenly on a baking tray, joking that she’s “about equality.”
“I want these chips to enjoy being the perfect bite,” she said, adding, “I believe in cheese, before and after.”
Once the chips were layered to her liking, she baked the dish, layered on some more toppings, and dug right in.
“Ok, I’m not waiting anymore. Those girls aren’t here and I’m gonna eat this,” she said, lunging for a fistful of loaded chips, possibly referring to her daughter Raddix, 3, and the little girl’s friends.
The “There’s Something About Mary” star chewed in blissful silence before adding, “There’s so much happening in there, it makes me weep. Like, I could cry.”
The actress completed her snack with a glass of her white wine before telling fans, “I’m going to go eat all of this.”
While many of Diaz’s fans commented about how great she looked and how delicious her snack appeared to be, others criticized her cooking technique.
“You need to wash that cilantro or you eating sand 😂,” one person wrote.
“I LOVE YOU BUT DAMN ADD MORE GARLIC….. ONE TINY BIT IS NOT ENOUGH, DO YOU WANT FLAVOUR, OR SHIT 😂😂😂,” a second impassioned critic shouted in the comments section.
“That’s too much ingredients for me sista,” another said.
“Hi Cameron, but don’t you think you put too much food in the recipe,” another agreed.
The “Holiday” star made headlines in June when she shared a glimpse inside her refrigerator, which was fully stocked with nothing but boxed-up salads and bottles from her Avaline wine line.
At the time, she announced her partnership with Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop Kitchen, “to release [her] favorite summer salad” to pair with the new Avaline Sauvignon Blanc.

Diaz has been mostly focused on spending time with her daughter, whom she shares with husband Benji Madden since retiring from acting in 2018.
While she did return to Hollywood to film her and Jamie Foxx’s upcoming movie “Back in Action,” a source claimed this will be her last film project.
“These back-to-back 10-hour workdays have been a lot on her and she hates being away from Raddix,” an insider close to Diaz told the Daily Mail in March. “Cameron loves being a mom more than anything in the world.”
The action-comedy is expected to premiere in 2024.
