▼ + stars: | 2023-09-22 | by ( Margaret Fleming | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +4 min

For Makenzie Steele, landing NIL deals with big companies like Under Armour and Lululemon required two things: posting consistently and putting her business email in her Instagram bio. The 20-year-old Clemson track and cross-country runner has secured nearly 20 brand deals through her Instagram and TikTok account, @goodfoodgoodrun. Steele started posting cooking and running content in late summer 2020 and has grown her platform to 42,000 Instagram followers and 23,000 TikTok followers. She's posted one-pan Caprese baked pasta, snickerdoodle granola, mini apple pancake bites, and lots of banana bread variations. "When someone first sees my account, they're like, 'it's just banana bread and oats,'" Steele said.

And because growing seaweed doesn’t need land or require irrigation, it could be more sustainable than traditional agriculture. Seaweed jamIf you’re looking to take your breakfast ideas in a new direction, then seaweed could be the way to go. But seaweed soup isn’t only consumed in Asia. In cooperation with Guernsey Dairy, the UK-based Seaweed Food Company has experimented with using algae in dairy products. She believes that these inventive dishes will bust people’s misconceptions of seaweed as “slimy and a bit smelly.”

Masticating juicers use a rotating, screw-shaped augur to crush and press fresh produce to extract juice, while centrifugal juicers rely on a high-speed spinning metal blade to pulverize produce into a mesh filter. Masticating juicers are slower and cost more, but often have higher yields and are therefore less wasteful (which we found to be true in our testing). Centrifugal juicers are faster and more powerful, but create foamier juice that’s more likely to separate.

Mulvaney took home the award for breakout creator at the Sunday night award ceremony, beating out TikTok it girl Alex Earle and Jake Shane — a.k.a. Conservative critics called for a boycott of the Bud Light brand, and LGBTQ+ advocates called on Bud Light to make clear its support for the LGBTQ+ community.

"Like many businesses, Daily Harvest had an annual retreat to discuss business priorities as well as build camaraderie and collegiality among the team," Daily Harvest told Insider. Daily Harvest, which Drori founded in 2015, made a name for itself by selling frozen foods that can be used to make smoothies, soups, and other meals. Under Drori's leadership, Daily Harvest started working with influencers to promote its food.

☆ Healthy breakfast ideas: Start your day with these quick meals

Because of the versatility and hands-off aspect of the preparation, these are some of my favorite breakfast options for road trip vacations and camping adventures — but they work for busy at-home mornings, too. Overnight oats are one of the most versatile breakfast options out there — and can easily be taken on the road or enjoyed at home. NelliSyr/iStockphoto/Getty ImagesTartines, AKA open-faced sandwiches — or as I like to call them, “things on toast” — comprise a catchall category of breakfast options that can skew savory or sweet. When I have a few minutes and am feeling famished, my go-to move is to grab eggs and tortillas for breakfast tacos or burritos. Eggs and tortillas pair well in the morning to make breakfast tacos or burritos.

However, battery-powered electric bikes and home security cameras similar to Amazon's Ring video doorbells will join the index, the ONS said. Inflation is high on the public's agenda, after surging energy prices pushed CPI to a 41-year high of 11.1% in October. In future it will use an industry database with 30 million price points rather than an index calculated by a regulator.

Making smoothies with fruit alone is a mistake that causes blood sugar spikes, a dietitian said. It's important to add healthy fats, protein, and fiber, Nichola Ludlam-Raine told Insider. She shared five recipes for nutritionally balanced smoothies, from carrot cake to apple pie flavors. "The main mistake people make when making smoothies is making them with 100% fruit," registered dietitian Nichola Ludlam-Raine told Insider. "These combined help to slow down the release of the energy from the blended fruit," Ludlam-Raine said.
