Cameron Diaz has shared how she puts together her breakfast on best pal Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop. The 43-year-old actress sat down for an interview with the website.

"I usually use whatever is left​over in the fridge from the night before," Diaz said. "I first sauté whatever the freshest veggies are with garlic, add the leftover protein, carbs, a little chicken stock, and then add either a fried egg or a scramble and voila!"

The "Charlie's Angels" star also shared how she entertains a big group with food. "I love to grill, so I love to have a protein for everyone, usually steaks, or lamb chops, or a fish," she admitted.

"And then I throw a few seasonal veggies on, too. Then, ​a couple of salads-either hearty with cabbages or fresh and bright with a citrus-and a big bowl of simple pasta. I love having a quinoa pasta with olive oil and garlic or veggies."

The actress told Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop lifestyle website that she considers the "Iron Man" star one of her food inspirations. Donna Hay, Rachael Ray, her mom as well as Instagram account Oil and Salt also inspire her.

Diaz, who wrote "The Longevity Book: The Science of Aging, the Biology of Strength, and the Privilege of Time," shared her thoughts on why people are afraid of aging. Her book was released last week.

"They don't understand what it is​; we only know it from what we see on the surface, not on a cellular level," the actress told the website. "All aging is a result of our trillions of cells aging, and once you understand the science, it gets way less scary."

E! News reported that the 43-year-old star just celebrated her one-year wedding anniversary with Good Charlotte guitarist Benji Madden, 37. The couple started dating in May 2014 and got married in a Jewish ceremony on Jan. 5, 2015.
