Fast Food Choices

Many of us choose fast-food restaurants as a dining out option in place of higher-priced venues. Fortunately, many fast-food restaurants have expanded their menus to include more healthful selections. When dining out, think about ordering entrées such as a regular-size hamburger or veggie burger, grilled chicken sandwiches, baked potatoes with light sour cream or salads with grilled chicken and light dressings. Skip the high saturated fat add-ons such as cheese and bacon. Instead of fries consider side salads, fruit, reduced-fat ice cream and low-fat milk to round out your meal.
