But for one specific recipe in her all-new Cravings: Recipes for All the Food You Want to Eat has us convinced that Teigen has some serious game in the kitchen.

The mum-of-two pulled out all the culinary stops for this recipe which she ‘absolutely loves’ and one of the reasons why she feels so strongly about it is because it involves no cheese, bacon or starch in it.

This must be what vegan and gluten-free dreams are made of! The dish in question is a chicken wrap, with Chrissy’s personal twist on it.

It’s not just any wrap recipe, in fact, this is a low-carb version that uses lettuce instead of a tortilla. The dish is such a winner in Chrissy’s book — quite literally — that it has the supermodel raiding the fridge in the dead of the night to devour every last bit of chicken left.

If you’re wondering what a former swimsuit model and bestselling cookbook author eats on a regular basis, we have evidence from Chrissy’s personal social media accounts to prove her love for low-carb meals.

The mum-of-two loves scrambled eggs and bacon for breakfast in the morning. Lunch consists of some type of a hearty salad high in lean protein and fresh vegetables.

Dinner is never a boring affair in Teigen’s kitchen. With hundreds of recipes in her arsenal, the chef knows how to wow her family with a variety of dishes, from her husband John Legend’s favorite Jamaican curry chicken to thai delicacies and Chrissy’s world-famous lemon arugula pasta.

But while Chrissy eats healthy most of the time, she also likes to tuck into her guilty pleasures every once in a while, especially her grilled cheese sandwiches, which she admits has become a night-time snacking ritual in her house.
