Chick Fil A Saved The Day!!!

I was traveling today and it ended up taking longer than expected so I was not prepared and I had no time to stop to sit and eat.

I panicked...until I remembered that Chick-Fil-A now serves grilled chicken nuggets on the kids menu. I ordered 6 grilled chicken nuggets, fruit, and an unsweetened tea (for later) and it was awesome!!! The chicken probably had more salt than I would have used if i had cooked it at home, but it was still a much better choice than some other options.

Chicken = 110 calories, 2.5 grams of fat, & 20 grams of Protein

Fruit = 65 calories & 0 fat

Talking about saving the day! I could have had a major cheat situation but I avoided it!!!

Next time I will be more prepared, but this low fat, low calorie option did the trick today :-)

love this!

I am driving to Georgia on Saturday and my daughter is sure to make me stop at Chick Fil A- it's her favorite, Thank you for posting this, now I know what I'll order.

Sounds like a good option if u need to stop :)

I am glad it is helpful! Just an FYI, I did pay the extra 57 cents to get the medium fruit, but you also have the option of apple sauce. I was very content afterwards. Not hungry and it was yummy enough to make me forget about the fries I did not buy!

If you really wanted to add more Protein you could get the 1% milk to drink. I did not because I only like milk when it is super cold and since I knew I could not drink it right away I went with the unsweetened tea that would still be good when i was ready to drink it. They also have yummy diet lemonade.

Okay...I have said enough. Gotta keep celebrating even the smallest little things...keeps me motivated.

Thanks for humoring me :)

It is always hard to know what to grab if you are out and about. I am often out in the middle of the day and trying to find an easy, healthy ,band friendly option is not easy.

Thanks for the post, great to know!
