- 12/8/2023
Make the healthiest choice for breakfast with these options at your fingertips.
With countless restaurant options on your morning commute, you may have built a sit-down breakfast into your morning routine. This might be an enjoyable way to start your day, but it can also lead to excess calories and a less-than-ideal nutrition composition. Breakfasts that are loaded with sugar, sodium, and saturated fat can contribute to health issues if enjoyed too often. Not to mention, a high sugar count could leave you with an energy crash mid-morning. As often as possible, enjoy breakfast at home. But when you are out and about, we've rounded up some of the best low-calorie breakfasts at 10 major restaurant chains so you can make the healthiest choice.
Again, it's important to stress that eating breakfast at home is a smart choice when you're looking to lose weight or maintain a healthy weight. Make-ahead meals, smoothies, bars, and freezer options make for quick choices and can be much healthier than what you get at a restaurant. You may be surprised to learn many restaurant breakfast items can pack near 1,000 calories, or more, and enough fat for an entire day. When selecting a healthier breakfast at a restaurant, avoid fried items, syrup, and extra butter. This can drastically limit empty calories.
When in doubt, refer to this list of the best low-calorie breakfasts at 10 major restaurant chains. Each provides suggestions for making the most out of your meal, allowing you a delicious breakfast that can serve your health goals, too.
