When compared to other fast-food restaurants, Chipotle offers its customers the possibility of customizing their meals. So, when you opt for a burrito bowl (rather than a normal burrito), you actually avoid eating many calories and refined carbs found in the flour tortilla.
Selecting chicken instead of chorizo is also a good idea. Plus, you can easily boost your daily fiber intake with brown rice, fajita veggies, and black beans.
Bear in mind that dressings or sauces are not that healthy, and you’ll most likely destroy all the health benefits this meal can provide.
8. Power Mediterranean Chicken Salad
You can find another healthy fast-food option at Wendy’s. Its Power Mediterranean Chicken Salad is filled with vitamins and minerals, so there’s no need to opt for that Gouda Bacon Cheeseburger, which, by the way, you are better off without.
Since this salad contains quinoa, you can lower your blood sugar levels, control your weight, as well as improve your gut’s health. In fact, some studies linked quinoa with a reduced risk of developing certain types of cancers.
So, next time you’re at Wendy’s, order just a full-size Power Mediterranean Chicken Salad to eat it as a meal, with no other side dishes!
