When it comes to fast food, eating healthy can be a little bit tricky. That's why I came up with these three simple rules to help you out. Although I may not consider fast food "healthy eating" these rules will definitely help you make healthier choices.
1. Little or no sauce
2. Grilled not fried
3. No bun please
When it comes to the sauce they put on foods these days they can be loaded with calories. The best thing to do is ask them to please hold the sauce. If you absolutely can't live without it, try asking them for light sauce. Another idea is to put the sauce on the side so you can physically see how much you are eating.
Grilled not fried. This is probably something you have heard a million times. But trust me when I say it is almost always healthier to reach for the grilled chicken instead of the fried. Just make sure to watch out for cheese! Although cheese may add flavor, cheese can be loaded with unwanted fat and calories!
No bun please! Avoiding bread can be one of the simplest ways to stay away from those dreaded carbs. Simply so "no bun please!" Another option is to try my personal favorite way which is wrapped in lettuce instead of bread.
I will be doing a post on healthier options for specific fast food restaurants in the future. So stay tuned! Have a great weekend everyone!
Until next time,
Janelle
