“Juice Press is on my way to work and grabbing a smoothie means being able to work straight through the afternoon. The side effect of this lazy habit is that it's a healthy, easy way to avoid typical shitty sandwiches or other quick foods that I’d gravitate toward during hectic days.” —Casey Neistat, a filmmaker, triathlete, and YouTube personality with over 5 million subscribers 

“Seaweed — raw, roasted, flakes, sheets, and soaked. I use these nori sheets to wrap up half an avocado, sprouts, and kraut. I purchase the seaweed at various local health food stores. It’s grain-free, fast, and a delicious power snack or light lunch. It feeds the brain, metabolism, and thyroid.” —Amanda Chantal Bacon, founder of holistic lifestyle company Moon Juice 

“I make a lentil-based salad at least once a week, including a French lentil salad with frisée and bacon. I just make copious amounts of lentils. They’re great and they last the whole week. For breakfast, you can do lentils with a fried egg on top, which is easy and delicious. Sometimes I’ll mix yogurt in or a tahini dressing. You can dress lentils up. They have a ton of protein and are my grain bowl base of the moment.” —Stephanie Danler, a healthy cook, runner, and author of Sweetbitter

"I have at least one salad and one whole avocado every day. My salads include a variety of vegetables — whatever is seasonal. Romaine lettuce, microgreens, radishes, quinoa, avocado, squash blossoms, and roasted watermelon or sunflower seeds are some of the typical ingredients. Golden almond milk is also a weekly favorite and it’s super healthy. The almond milk is blended with raw almonds, water, coconut, ginger, and turmeric (a great source of antioxidants). I prefer to eat plant-based food. I don’t cook for myself as much as I used to, but I still really enjoy cooking brunch. It’s a good time to get people together on the weekends.” —Adam Kenworthy, an ultramarathoner and plant-based chef in New York City.

“I work out in the mornings and like to have a little fuel on an empty stomach. You can find bananas anywhere from a 7-Eleven to a gourmet food shop and they come in their own carrying cases. Post-run or workout, I’ll make a protein smoothie at home. I keep bags of frozen fruit in my freezer (mango, blueberries, bananas, açaí, and even dragon fruit). Eggs are another regular favorite: scrambled, hard boiled, omelets, or egg whites. They’re very satisfying but not overly-filling. They’re loaded with protein and I can have them as a meal or an in-between snack.” —Claudia Lebenthal, editor and founder of styleofsport.com, a website for sophisticated sports enthusiasts.
