Let’s talk about how to order healthy at any restaurant and what
are the right questions to ask, to get a delish but also good for
you meal.
Now, up front I want to be clear that I am all about loving what
you eat, and having the special experiences and endulging- for
sure!
But for the majority of the time - I think we all feel the best
when we fuel our bodys with whole foods and limit sugars, refined
carbs and seeds oils.
I’m going to give you tips if you are an easy order-er when you’re
out- and also if you’re like me and have no problems being the
person with the complicated order - so many tips for you
too.
In fact, if there’s ever a viral video of someone with like their
wildly complicated order, 5 different friends will send me the same
video. I laugh too because it’s accurate but hey I’ve learned what
makes me body feel crappy and what makes it feel great and if my
order has a few turns to get there, it’s worth it.
TIPS!
Research where you’re going ahead of time - pick places with
healthier options.
As you get into doing this, call and ask the questions before you
go- that way you can order easier when you get there.
Tips for the…
Easy order-er
-focus on protein
-sauce on the side
-extra veggies instead of a starch
-lettece wrapped instead of a bun
Complicated order-er
-Cook with olive oil or avocado oil
-Drinks - no refined sugar- ask for what fresh fruits they
have
-Fish - wild caught
-Chicken - organic
-Beef - grass fed beef or steak
For dessert - bowl of berries - anything on top on the side
please
See if you can get something from breakfast menu like greek yogurt
and fruit with granola on the side.
And if you’re at a place that isn’t an experience- bring your own
glass container! No shame in bringing your own yummy food if they
don’t have the right thing for you!
CHEERS to loving the healthy foods you are ordering out!
