Amanda Seyfried reveals raw food diet is “awful”

Actress Amanda Seyfried has admitted that, although her raw food diet keeps her beautiful figure in shape, it is not much fun.

“It’s intense. And sort of awful. Yesterday for lunch? Spinach. Just spinach. Spinach and some seeds,” she told Esquire magazine recently.

The 24 year old played the character of Sophie in the 2008 hit musical Mamma Mia!, starring alongside movie giants such as Meryl Streep, Pierce Brosnan and Colin Firth.

During the interview with the magazine, the petite blonde eats a packed lunch of tabbouleh – a salad dish from the eastern Mediterranean.

Its main ingredients are parsley, bulgur, mint, tomato, spring onion and herbs, usually coated in an olive oil and lemon juice dressing.

Amanda is in a number of films that are currently in various stages of production, including A Woman of No Importance, Albert Nobbs and Letters to Juliet.

She has also starred in the TV show Big Love, alongside Chloe Sevigny.
