Wendy's New Salad Sensations!

[Anonymous]

I just tried the Chicken BLT salad for lunch. VERY GOOD!
Remember to have them hold the croutons and ask for ranch dressing or you will get the sugary honey dijon!

I am completely full and could only eat about half of it!

Happy Eating!

ceasar salad dressing

The B L T salad is good but if you want lower carb salad dressing and no sugar the ceaser is sugar free and 1 carb for 1 ounce package. of course the ranch is good also.

fast food

i am tryin very hard on induction...i am on 13th day...i am really havin probs with the places i go to eat..like Sonic Burger..i eat the grilled chicken..feel stupid ..lol..sittin in car removin the bread..we also went to Popeyes chicken..i sat there pullin off skin...neither place really serves low carb..but my hubby could live at sonic...i know i should stay out of fast food places but it is very hard when hubby doesnt do low carb with me..

so have a sonic number 1 or 2 and hold the bun, add cheese, add bacon, or jaleponos if you want. Heck have a bacon double sonic burger hold the bun. Sonic serves breakfast all day long too so get eggs and bacon or sausage ot ham and hold the burrito wrapping.

Hold the bun

My husband used to get so embarrassed when I would go into a fast food place and order a burger hold the ketchup and bun. If I ever sent him to get food, he would always bring me back a burger in the bun. Now that I am loosing weight, he gladly orders it the way I want. Thank the Lord he is over his embarrassment. I have noticed that more and more restaurants around me are very open to it. I can stop by McDonalds now and order and egg McNoMuffin and they know exactly what I want.

hamburger

if a fast food place serves food in paper wrappers will they serve food w/o bun?? i was scared to ask folks at sonic drive in...lol

[DeniseS]

I know that McDonalds will just put it in a box. Wendy's has wrapped it for me. What they do if you order a double burger is put the goodies (onion, pickles, mustard) in the middle of the two. The cheese can stick to the paper but comes off easily.

If you live in California and have an IN N OUT burger chain near you you can order what they call a protien burger, instead of a bun they use lettuce leaves. Just ask for no sauce, since there may be sugar in it. But I always get it with grilled onions, dang it's good

Salad dressing... **S**

I always carry an small bottle of olive oil/red wine vinegar with me when I know we will probably be eating out... **S** Walmart has plastic ones (labeled as medicine bottle) in 2 oz, 3 oz, and 4 oz sizes... I am always prepared... **S**

On the humorous side....I have been on Atkins for 1 week (lost 4.5 lbs..*S*) and have been explaining it to my RN daughter... We were eating out today (I got the last broiled chicken salad the snack bar had left) and she noticed half way through our meal that the people behind me were "on Atkins" too... I turned around and looked, and they were tearing up hamburger paddies on their salads... **S** We asked and sure enough they were, laughing and asking "How could you tell..???" **S**

eating out

just like another chatter said, the protein burger is available at In n Out, but almost any fast food which uses whole lettuce (not the prepackaged shredded kind) will have no problem wrapping your hamburger in a lettuce. Fuddruckers and McCormick's has done it as well. also, i use the romain lettuce not only as a bun replacement, but as a tortilla replacement. so whenever i'm craving a soft taco, i'll have it on a lettuce. it even folds right!
