Top 10 Fast Food Meals for a Healthier You

The Best Healthy Fast Food Options You Can Order
1. Chipotle Burrito Bowl
The great thing about choosing Chipotle is you’re able to customize your order to whatever it is you like. And, they have some nutritious options that taste great, too. Opt for chicken in your bowl, and you’ll pack in 32 grams of protein to help keep you fuller, longer. Or, if you’re vegetarian, you can top it with their ‘sofritas’, a soy protein blend that has 29 grams of protein. Top it with veggies, guacamole, and some cheese to get in some healthy fats, and you have a well-rounded meal.
2. Chik-fil-A Grilled Chicken Sandwich
There’s no denying that craving for Chik-fil-A when it comes. But, that original chicken sandwich houses 1700 mg of sodium alone. Get some fries and a drink on the side, and that number will pop up even more. Luckily, Chik-fil-A’s grilled chicken sandwich is just as good, is 770 mg of sodium (not a great number, but better than the alternative). It also packs 28 grams of protein. Pair it with a side salad or fruit cup for some extra vitamins and minerals.
3. Starbucks Egg White and Roasted Red Pepper Egg Bites
Need an on-the-go breakfast and your morning coffee? Starbucks has you covered. Their egg white and roasted red pepper egg bites are only 170 calories, with 12 grams of protein.

It’s a classic, and it’s shockingly not terrible for you. The McDonald’s Egg McMuffin is only 310 calories and boast 17 grams of protein, and only 13 grams of fat (pretty reasonable for fast food). With a McDonalds on almost every street corner, you can now take comfort in knowing you can eat healthy just about anywhere.
