Molly Yeh, the host of Food Network’s Girl Meets Farm, gives her followers a behind-the-scenes look at what she eats in a day while filming her show. Known for her fun fare that combines midwestern dishes with Jewish and Chinese flavors, Yeh shares a sneak peek of the recipes she’s working on for the show. She starts her day with Blueberry Delight, a breakfast made with frozen blueberries, almond butter, cinnamon, and almond milk. Yeh also snacks on little bites of what she prepares for episodes, like tahini-vanilla donuts and smiley-face tater tots.
For lunch, Yeh and the Girl Meets Farm crew enjoy takeout from a local Indian restaurant, House of Punjab, where they order dishes like chana masala, dal tadka, and garlic naan. Choosing plant-based options like chickpeas and lentils ensures they get a good balance of protein, fiber, and veggies. Dinner consists of a hot dog salad, inspired by Chicago-style dogs, served over lettuce with pickle ranch dressing. Yeh also indulges in a blueberry slab pie, the dessert from that episode.
Yeh ends her day with a favorite show, The New Look, on Apple TV+ and some popcorn as a final snack. Her snacks throughout the day include Smartfood white Cheddar popcorn, mixed nuts, cheese crackers, and dark chocolate-covered chickpeas from Lebby Snacks. These provide a mix of sweet and savory options that offer some protein and satisfaction. Yeh’s lively personality and bubbly energy shine through as she shares her food choices and experiences on set.
