Fast food is cheap, filling, convenient, and a delicious option that often comes with a side of guilt. One in every four Americans eats fast food at least once a day. Unfortunately, many fast food meals contain a whole day’s worth of calories and fat. Take a Double Whopper Sandwich Meal from Burger King for example: It will set you back 1430 calories and 72g fat!

While you can do a lot of nutritional destruction at the drive-thru window, opting for fast food fixes at lunchtime does not have to derail your healthy-eating plan. Tanya Zuckerbrot, RD, author of The F-Factor Diet, scoured some of the most popular fast food chains and picked the top 12 fast-food lunches that have a healthy amount of calories, protein, and fat.

12 Healthy Fast Food Lunches

McDonald’s Honey Mustard Snack Wrap (Grilled), Southwest Chicken Salad (No Chicken), Apple Slices

Having served over 250 billion people since they first open their doors in 1940, McDonald’s is the pioneer of fast food. Instead of super-sizing your next double cheeseburger combo meal, take a healthier approach by ordering a la carte. A Grilled Honey Mustard Snack Wrap, the Southwest Chicken Salad (without chicken) and apple slices contain 405 calories, 12.5g fat, and 22g protein. Ordering healthy items a la carte gets you more food for fewer calories, leaving your stomach full and alleviating the need to loosen another notch on your belt loop.
