5. Grilled Nuggets and Superfood Side

We don’t know about you, but Chick-fil-A is our favorite American fast food restaurant chain. It has so many healthy options to choose from. However, our favorites are Grilled Nuggets and one serving of the Superfood Side. They make the perfect on-the-go match.

First of all, those nuggets are grilled, which makes a big difference when referring to nutrition. Second of all, when paired with the Superfood Side, namely kale, broccolini, dried cherries, nut blend, and maple vinaigrette, it provides you with adequate amounts of fiber and protein.

Not to mention the wide range of vitamins and minerals you can get…

6. Southwest Grilled Chicken Salad

  • Calories: 400
  • Fat: 13.5 grams
  • Protein: 37 grams
  • Carbs: 35 grams
  • Fiber: 7 grams

Yes! McDonald’s is on our list too. Although you might not pick McDonald’s when it comes to healthier fast-food restaurants, the Southwest Grilled Chicken Salad is a McDonald’s item you can safely eat.

It stands out from the rest of the popular fast-food chain’s items because it packs approximately 37 grams of protein, which will most likely make you feel fuller for longer than you might think.

Additionally, due to its ingredients (grilled chicken, corn, poblano peppers, black beans, tomatoes, red leaf lettuce, kale, and spinach), you’ll enjoy numerous health benefits.

However, it’s best to steer clear of dressings unless you make your own at home.
