Khloe Kardashian is one of us, shares her fast food go-to orders
Khloe Kardashian has a strong brand built around healthy eating and intense workout regimens, but turns out, she’s no stranger to fast food.
Who among us hasn’t had a fried chicken cheat day? Khloe Kardashian knows this essential truth, but she also knows that sometimes you may find yourself at a fast food restaurant on a day you actually need to try and stick to your healthy diet.
The temptation, in such a situation, is unreal. After all, every day you’re learning about ridiculous new menu items that sound just ridiculous enough to be delicious.
As PEOPLE reports, Kardashian’s latest exclusive blog post explains her approach like this:
"Even though clean eating is my M.O., sometimes I find myself in situations where there just isn’t an avocado smoothie or quinoa salad on the menu. When your only options are the Golden Arches or Colonel Sanders, you don’t have to throw your whole diet out the window!"
Those situations, apparently, include but are not limited to McDonald’s, Chipotle, KFC, Subway and Taco Bell. We can relate. And because Khloe is nothing if not a giver, she shared her recommendations for each spot. Spoilers: Girl loves herself some chicken.
McDonald’s Artisan Grilled Chicken Sandwich
Because: “This sandwich is relatively low in calories and scores high on the protein scale, which should keep you feeling more full for longer.”
But also: No fries, no soda, no supersizing.
Chipotle Salad Bowl
Specifically: “Romaine lettuce, black beans, fajita vegetables, fresh tomato salsa, and guacamole. She skips the burrito wrapper, cheese, and sour cream, but springs for extra guac, because obviously.”
KFC Kentucky Grilled Chicken Breast with sweet kernel corn and green beans
Because: “This combo is high in lean protein and even provides vitamins A, C and E from the veggie sides. I promise it’s still ‘finger-lickin’ good’—and at just 310 calories you won’t break the bank!”
Subway Turkey Breast Sub
Specifically: “A Subway meal for Khloé means a 6-inch turkey breast sandwich served on a 9-grain bun with Swiss cheese, banana peppers, cucumbers, green peppers, lettuce, spinach, tomatoes, avocado, and vinegar dressing. All the freebies!”
Taco Bell 2 Fresco Soft Chicken Tacos
Because: “All the items [on the fresco menu] are flavored with super flavorful low-calorie, fat-free pico de gallo. In general, steer clear of anything smothered, supreme, wrapped in a Dorito, or XXL-sized and you’ll be just fine!”
Honestly, we can’t promise that we will make the right decisions when the time comes, but we appreciate Khloe’s advice. She has given us the tools to succeed etc. etc.
