16. Chicken Nuggets and Salad
Fast food joint: Chick-fil-A
Menu item: Chicken nuggets and a side salad
Calories: 220
Chick-fil-A is on our list more than once for a reason, when it comes to fast food, this restaurant is one of the most healthy out there!
This healthy menu option isn’t simply one item, it’s a whole meal — and only 220 calories total! That is tough to beat. To start your day with only 220 healthy calories, order the 8-count grilled chicken nuggets at Chick-fil-A. Make no mistake, though! Always grilled, never fried or breaded! This alone is 140 calories, leaving you plenty of room to pair it with another healthy option. For this item, we suggest its side salad, coming in at just 80 calories. Together, this is 7.5g of fat, too, so that’s another plus.
Note: Be smart about the beverage of your choice! Don’t go for anything too heavy.
