Mine is Texas Roadhouse, I typically get a Dallas Filet and Steamed Broccoli. I am not a fast food eater in general. Any of it makes me feel bloated.
Good choice! And well done listening to how good makes your body feel 👍🏼.
I would choose Mexican. We have only eaten in a restaurant 5 times since Covid. I always order the chicken fajitas with lettuce and extra salsa-not rice. ( can’t handle rice since VSG) No tortillas. I make my own salad with the ingredients. I use salsa as a dressing.
Great idea! Salsa is a perfect dressing. I do so whenever we order Chipotle too.
Omg….so eye opening!!!! Thanks for doing this , Kate!
Yay! Glad you enjoyed it!
What were your biggest eye openers?
My favorite restaurants out of the ones listed are, chipotle, Texas Roadhouse. Potbelly looks good but there’s not one close to me. Wendy’s was very eye opening for me!
What menu items surprised you with Wendy’s?
My favorite fast food is Wendy’s (cup of chili), Chick Filet (grilled chicken nuggets, as an absolute last resort, Taco Bell Chicken power bowl with no rice. If I go Mediterranean I get a side Greek salad, no dressing and a side of Shish Kafka.
Excellent! You’ve got this figured out!
#replay. I’m glad I like to cook because eating out is difficult…especially fast food. I choose a steakhouse or seafood restaurant. I order protein and a veggie.
Great strategy!
We like to go to the Texas Roadhouse steakhouse and we usually don’t even get appetizers and we share a meal between the both of us, picking a house salad as an extra side.
I love it! Good thinking.
Wow. Didn’t realize how much unhealthy food is out there. Now I have backup for always telling my husband I want to go to a steak house!!
I like to get a good steak with either mushrooms as my side or asparagus. I don’t do a lot of fast food as it always seems to sit heavy. Thank you Kate for reviewing this!
Glad you found it helpful! You’re welcome 🙂
