There are people who do not mind gaining a few pounds every month – until their doctor confines them to a strict diet. For many people, however, selecting healthy food is an important matter, and they find themselves in a fix when they have no other option but to eat fast food or starve. For such situations, we have compiled a list of foods that you can order in a fast food chain without the guilt of eating junk food.
Grilled Chicken Sandwich
Grilled chicken is a healthier choice as compared to fried chicken. Combined with whole grain or bran bun, it can be considered a healthy food. However, order your sandwich without any kind of sauces or mayo. It might be too dry to eat, but you can enjoy it with tea, coffee, or any other drink of your choice.
Baked Potato
Wendy’s have plain baked potato on their menu. A baked potato is quite a healthy food. You can order a small chili to add flavor to it.
Grilled Chicken Breast with Mashed Potatoes
If you are not feeling to have a grilled chicken sandwich, you can have the goodness of grilled chicken and combine it with a baked potato. This is a balanced combination of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.
Fruit n Yogurt Parfait with Southwest Salad
Grilled chicken salad is a healthy choice. But avoid any salad dressing or keep it very light. McDonald’s Southwest Salad has a good combination of dietary fiber and protein with low saturated fat content. Chick-fil-A’s Chargrilled and Fruit Salad is also a good choice. Again, keep away from dressings.
Burger King’s Veggie Burger and Garden Salad
There are not many choices when it comes to veggie burgers. However, Burger King’s Veggie Burger and Garden Salad are currently some healthy and tasty choices. Order it without mayonnaise and other dressings.
