Michelle Monaghan's biggest food weakness is cheese and she loves to sit at home and "stuff" her face with different types at once.

The 'Patriots Day' star is a keen fitness fanatic and regularly exercises as well as making sure she eats lots of fresh vegetables and lean meats.

But Michelle has an insatiable hunger for cheese and often will have "six or seven" different types in her fridge at one time to satisfy her craving for the dairy delight.

Speaking to the March 2017 issue of Shape magazine - which is out next week and of which she is the cover star - she said: "I don't have a sweet tooth; I have a savoury tooth. There are six or seven cheese in my fridge at all times. My idea of snacking is putting cheeses on a platter with prosciutto and crackers and sitting in front of it and stuffing my face."

One food group Michelle doesn't have an appetite for is fruit.

The 40-year-old actress feels guilty that she doesn't eat vitamin rich fruits so she makes up for it by having a green juice every morning.

Michelle - who has two children with her husband, Australian graphic artist Peter White - shared: "I have never liked fruit. To make up for it, I have a green juice every morning, which is totally devoid of fruit but has tons of vitamins from vegetables. A typical day of eating for me is eggs or oatmeal for breakfast, soup or salad for lunch, and fish or meat and lots of veggies for dinner.

"I love my shape because I know what it's capable of - running 13 miles, having two children, and learning to surf. I love my body so much; it's profoundly amazing. I have enormous gratitude for it."
