13 Healthy Fast-Food Breakfasts, According to a Dietitian
Sonic Drive-In: Jr. Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Burrito
Nutrition (Per burrito):
Calories: 270
Fat: 14 g (Saturated Fat: 6 g)
Sodium: 870 mg
Carbs: 22 g (Fiber: 1 g, Sugar: 0 g)
Protein: 13 g
No matter what you eat, when it comes to achieving your nutritional goals, it’s more about portion control than constantly focusing on the calorie count. So, while Sonic may not be your go-to fast food joint for healthy breakfast options, indulging in smaller portions never hurts. That’s where Sonic’s “Junior” breakfast burrito comes in. With Sonic’s slightly smaller Jr. Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Breakfast Burrito, you’re still consuming 13 grams of protein and less than 300 calories, which may help you stay on track toward your health goals.
Chick-fil-A: Greek Yogurt Parfait
Nutrition (Per serving):
Calories: 270
Fat: 9 g (Saturated Fat: 3.5 g)
Sodium: 80 mg
Carbs: 36 g (Fiber: 1 g, Sugar: 26 g)
Protein: 13 g
Look past the chicken biscuits (we know how hard that can be!), and you’ll see that Chick-fil-A offers a Greek Yogurt Parfait made with organic vanilla bean Greek yogurt, a source of probiotics or live bacteria that may aid in both digestion and keeping your bowel movements regular. Also, this parfait comes with low-sugar and antioxidant-rich berries and your choice of either granola or cookie crumbs on top. Of course, we recommend opting for the more nutritionally dense granola to avoid any unwanted grogginess once that sugar high crashes.
