To put it plainly, this woman can eat.
So, maybe she is a unicorn (a really hungry one).
You be the judge here’s a closer look at the petite powerhouse’s food staples.
Lots o' pasta
Giuliana Rancic gets her deep and abiding love for pasta honestly.
Born in Italy, theE!anchor didn’t come to the states until she was a young girl.
It’s definitely one of the most popular dishes."
The same could be said about her signature dish, which makes frequent cameos onRancic’s Instagram feed.
In 2014, Rancic generously shared the recipe for Mama DePandi’s bucatini Pomodoro withMichigan Avenuemagazine.
Yes, just
The restaurant industry can be notoriously high-stress, but it has its perks, too.
Namely, there’s always a table with your name on it.
First came RPM Italian in D.C. and Chicago.
Then, also in the Windy City, cameRPM Steak.
“It’s always hard deciding which one,” Rancic toldOpen Table.
We’re like, steak?
We go back and forth all the time."
The food must be tasty to elicit such devotion from foodies like Rancic and her husband.
Indeed,“The Duke” a 10 oz.
Bring on the bread
Giuliana Rancic’s obsession with starchy Italian goodness doesn’t stop at pasta.
Mealtime is an event, and it requires certain accouterments.
“Mangia [‘eat’ in Italian] was one of the first words I learned as a kid.
I take the time to set the table, light a candle and put out a bread basket.”
Rolls don’t have a monopoly on Rancic’s taste buds where bread is concerned, though.
Hey, when in Rome, right?
The media maven also keeps her energy up by havinghealthy snackson hand for quick and easy noshing.
In an interview withShape, Rancic revealed a few of her daily go-to foods.
“Pretzels with hummus are another great source of protein with low fat.
When she needs a light and healthy lunch, she turns to tuna and brown rice sushi rolls.
After all, as any parent can attest to, many of your meals consist of their leftovers.
Like so many other mamas, Giuliana Rancic lets her child’s taste steer some of their meals.
And her son Duke really likes pancakes.
Her Instagram seems to agree.
While in the Windy City, she naturally prefers to dine at RPM Italian.
If you have impressive culinary skills, you’re free to whip up the latter at home.
In 2017, Rancic shared RPM Italian’s recipe for the Spicy King Crab dish onInstagram.
Be forewarned, though: the skill level required to prepare this masterful seafood meal is professional.
Unfortunately, being a pro at chowing down on such fare does not count.
Burgers, beer, and fries, FTW!
Giuliana Rancic’s slender figure has often drawn extreme criticism from keyboard warriors.
“And they were accusing me of every eating disorder.
A common barb lobbed at Rancic is something to the effect of “go eat a burger.”
That certainly wasn’t the only time Rancic felt carnivorous, though.
She often orders burgers, sometimes withwaffle friesand almost always withbeer like a boss.
TheE!anchor also considers tacos to be a crucial food group.
In 2015, Rancic partnered with popular food chain P.F.
Chang’s to raise awareness for breast cancer and funding for research.
The meal Rancic and the restaurant settled on?
You guessed it tacos!
In particular, Jicama Street Tacos, which Rancic gushed were “delicious!”
during an interview withSheKnows.
Rancic showed this Mexican food masterpiece more love when her family took a vacation to Orlando, Florida.
Accordingly, Rancic tries to incorporate fruits and veggies into her diet every day.
Sometimes, that means putting a healthy spin on her favorite not-so-healthy foods.
Largely, though, it means eating the Italian diet she adores.
It’s super healthy and people often talk about how Europeans are in shape, healthy and active.
I think Italian food is very healthy because it’s made with simple ingredients.”
Chocolate because, chocolate
You wouldn’t deny a woman chocolate, would you?
At RPM Steak, she devoursNutella-stuffed bread puddingand14k chocolate cake.
Rancic believes in the power of chocolate so much that she gives it away sort of.
Good call, G!
