Rippa Is Ripped: Kelly's Breakfast Secret Contains Avocado

We all know and love Kelly Rippa from "Live with Kelly and Michael."

And there's no secret here: Rippa is ripped!!

You won't find an ounce of fat anywhere on Kelly's body. Possibly in her little, belly button, but that's about it. The woman is ultra-light but quite muscular for her tiny size.

The daytime star is a work-out freak and disciplined dieter. You will either LOVE Kelly Rippa's physique or hate it.

And it hasn't been easy for Kelly to ignore the constant, cruel tabloid headlines and comments about her such as, anorexic, eating disorder, boy's body, and so forth.

We don't know Kelly Rippa, but we do see a fit body.

Is she scary skinny, like a lot of folks say?

Well, we think she is down too fine, especially after having seen the actress spend a number of years on the former soap, "All my Children." There she was much heavier if we can use that term, and she looked equally gorgeous.

Today on "Live with Kelly and Michael,", the topic of breakfast came up. Kelly admitted that she doesn't indulge until AFTER the show, which ends at 10 AM.

She used to have this for breakfast:

Greek yogurt with blueberries + pistachios mixed in.

This morning, Kelly Rippa introduced her new fave breakfast:

mashed avocado on an English muffin with red pepper flakes.

Kelly was raving about how nutritious the avocado is, and she is right.

The avocado is such an amazing food on all fronts.  Even babies can enjoy it as one of their first fruits.  The avocado is heart-healthy full of good fats that can lower bad cholesterol.  The soft inner fruit is packed with almost 20 vitamins and minerals, and one serving boasts a mere 50 calories. Plus this little, dynamo with the thick, pebbly skin is cholesterol-free and sodium-free.

We love avocado and we think this is a filling, little breakfast!

Thanks, Kelly!
