So we all know fast food isn't the most healthy choice, but that does not mean EVERY item on the menu is bad. If I had to choose the most nutritious fast food restaurant, I would have to pick Chick-fil-a. They have a Chargrilled Chicken Garden Salad with slices of grilled chicken breast on a fresh bed of Romaine and Iceberg lettuce, shredded red cabbage and carrots, grape tomatoes, broccoli florets, and a blend of Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheeses. This salad has 180 calories , 11 grams of carbohydrates , and 22 grams of protein. It is served with Honey Roasted Sunflower Kernels (90 calories), Butter Garlic Croutons (60 calories), and your choice of dressing. I recommend the Light Italian Dressing, which has only 15 calories.
If salad isn't really your thing, try the Chargrilled Chicken Sandwich. It is composed of a boneless breast of chicken marinated in special seasonings and grilled to perfection, served on a Toasted Golden Wheat Bun, topped with dill pickle chips, Green Leaf Lettuce, and tomato. This sandwich has 300 calories , 38 grams of carbohydrates , and 29 grams of protein. Instead of fries, try a fruit cup (100 calories) with mandarin orange segments, fresh strawberry slices, red and green apple chunks, and red grapes, served chilled with a choice of 3 sizes. In place of a soda, get a bottle of water or a diet lemonade (30 calories).
Happy Eating!
