Trying to aviod those hormone filled chicken nuggets and irresistable McDonalds fries, the Phipps' family is on a quest to find new "on the go healthier picks". So far we have found these to be our new favorites.....
Chipolte - Mexican fast food, set up similar to a "Subway pick and choose your own toppings." Chipolte uses all natural meat with no added hormones and even their sour cream is from organic dairy (you can read this on the back of their cups!) Plus you can get fresh salsa, tomatoes, peppers and all sorts of yummy things. Price is definitely good because serving are so big. Emma and I split a Vegetarian Bowl with peppers and onion stir fry...all the good fixin's on top like black beans, tomatoes, lettuce, salsa, and guacamole. Ask for an extra bowl to split and two ice waters - we spend less than if we ordered McDonalds.
Panara Bread - Voted "healthiest on the go" restaurant. All meat is again from natural sources so no MSGs added. They have GREAT veggie soup and even the kids meals come with organic yogurt. Again, large portions...Emma and I are splitters her sometimes too. This is a Phipps' family favorite for after church! Everyone is happy and full when leaving! A little more on the pricey side, but again order water and split some things - you will be happy to be grease free.
Subway - A quickie favorite. Steer clear of processed deli meats though - full of preservatives and sodium! Emma and I love to order a foot long Veggie and fill it up to the max...on whole wheat bread. She can usually devour more than me of it!
Panda Express - If you are filling a little sinful, you can at least be comforted by knowing their chicken is MSG free as well. Now I can't comment on the sweet, sugary sauces, but man it is GOOD! Order that ice water! :) Again HUGE portions, so split with your kiddo to save that $$.
Always searching for others - PLEASE SHARE/COMMENT if you have more favorite healthy stops for those on the go days!
