Katy Perry's healthy-eating routine? It boils down to this, which she recently shared with FitPerez: "When I was on the road, I liked to have a light soup, a piece of grilled chicken and some quinoa with grilled asparagus for dinner. I always need my daily vitamins and I loved fresh-pressed juices and coconut water. I also love snacks, but pick healthier options like veggies and hummus, tangerines or Popchips." (Yes, she's the spokesperson for Popchips, but I concur-they're tasty and a good, light snack pick, though I'd rather see ya'll eating more veggies than processed foods-just sayin!)

"Eating healthy is so important because I can't afford to get sick. When I was on the road, it was very important to eat a balanced meal and to make sure my energy was up for every two-hour show."

I'm glad to see soup on Katy's list here, as I think so many women forget that soup can be a seriously slimming food. Broth-based soups are great because (when they're served hot) you just sip them slowly. They're loaded with flavor and can be surprisingly filling. My favorite is miso soup with a bit of cubed tofu and tons of greens like kale and spinach steamed right on top in the microwave (I also add sliced onions!).

Are you a soup lover? Quinoa?

P.S. Katy Perry's most outrageous moments. And, this may be the secret to Miley Cyrus' fab abs.
