5 of the Healthiest Fast Food Items

submitted on 19 September 2017
When was the last time you went out to eat? Whether it was two weeks ago, or within the last 24 hours researchers say American’s struggle with the “special occasion mentality”, a feeling that sets in when we dine out at a local eatery or Arby’s. If eating outside of the house was actually an occasional treat, we’d be in much better shape. So, if you’re going to eat out, do it right. Here’s a variety-pack of fast food meals with low calorie count and high protein and fiber to keep you full for longer, that don’t scrimp on flavor or taste. Who says you can’t have your burger with the bun too!

1. Panera — Smoked Turkey Breast Sandwich on Country Wheat — 430 calories Panera is the holy grail of lunch fare made with wholesome ingredients in half the time. Check out the “You Pick Two” options for a small salad and delicious half sandwich, or go for the full sandwich. The Smoked Turkey Breast Sandwich on Country Wheat (always choose wheat for whole grain Panera bread nutrition) holds lots of protein to keep you full with a calorie count that isn’t too high, or two low. Here’s what inside: • 430 calories • 33 g protein • 3.5 g fat • 67 g carbs • 1790 mg of sodium (lots of sodium, be aware!)

2. Arby’s — Roast Turkey Farmhouse Salad with ⅓ Packet Lite Italian Dressing — 237 calories

Arby’s is known for their classic roast beef sandwich which is loaded with sodium and starchy bread. Their salads are a grand slam, however. The poultry in the salad packs 22 grams of protein with only 237 calories. This is the healthiest item when it comes to Arby’s nutrition. And surprise—it has bacon! Talk about delicious and nutritious. • 237 calories • 22 g protein • 13.4 g fat • 8.7 g carbs • 1,110 mg sodium

3. Carl Jr’s — Turkey Burger (hold the mayo) — 380 calories

Carl's Jr. holds down a respectable line of healthy offerings, including the 500-calorie-or-less turkey burgers and Chicken Stars. To find the meal with the most nutritional value, order the Turkey Burger and make sure to hold the mayo. The burger just so happens to come with a special sauce, so you won’t even notice its gone. • 380 calories • 29 g protein • 10 g fat • 45 g carbs • 880 mg sodium

4. McDonald's — Egg McMuffin — 300 calories

McDonalds knew what they were doing when they made the classic Egg McMuffin. Hankering for a hot breakfast sandwich? Skip out on the meat and start your morning strong with the Egg McMuffin’s 17 grams of protein and only 29 grams of carbs. Pair it with a yogurt or fruit cup if you’re having it for lunch. • 300 calories • 17 g protein • 12 g fat • 29 g carbs • 730 mg sodium

5. Chipotle — Chicken, Pinto Bean and Veggie Salad —365 calories

Want a healthy hack for Chipotle? Think protein and vegetables only. Start with a bed of romaine lettuce, topped with chicken, pinto or black beans, double fajita vegetables, and tomato salsa for flavor. This meal will keep you satisfied long after meal time and is a great opportunity to load up on nutrient-packed veggies. • 365 calories • 42 g protein • 9 g fat • 36 g carbs • 1,160 mg sodium
