I have one day, Sunday where I can eat anything I choose from my approved grocery list. I choose the clean, healthy foods I love like apples, berries, brown rice, sweet potatoes, and steak. This is the day I allow for going out to a restaurant and enjoying time away from my home.
The following are the "going out" meals I rely on when I go out-
Breakfast at Mimi's Café
I choose the Fresh &Fit, Five-Alarm Santa Fe Egg White Omelet. The Omelet includes diced jalapenos, onion, cilantro, tomatoes, and chipotle sauce. I omit the chipotle sauce and add avocado. In addition, I ask for all strawberries without sugar instead of the fruit they usually add as a side.
Lunch at On the Border
I order the Sizzling Fajita Salad with Steak salad. I omit the sour cream and cheeses from the salad and add fresh avocado. Instead of dressing I request extra salsa. The hardest part about my visits to On the Border are the bottomless chips and salsa. In case you were wondering, that part is not on my approved list of foods.
Dinner at Applebee's
I order either a steak or chicken breast without any butter or sauce. My side is all broccoli or mixed steamed veggies. I am sure to make sure the server knows no butter on anything. I love eating out and with a few simple rules I set for myself, it isn't difficult. I drink water, unsweetened iced tea, or coffee. Grilled chicken, grilled steak, and egg whites is always my go to in any meal. I always request no sauce or all sauce on the side and I ask for no sugar on any fruit I am eating. A lot of places now offer brown rice as an option, also.
Finally, I am of the opinion that there are no "fast food" options on this day. Some may disagree with me, but I do not bother with the drive-thru.
