Healthy Eats: My Top 20 Favorite Healthy Restaurants

image-asset.jpeg

Listen, I know busy schedule can put a dent in one’s plans to keep up a healthy lifestyle. Sometimes we just need a ready-made meal in 15 mins or less; whether it’s by drive-thru, delivery service, or the to-go line. Believe me, I’ve been there babe. But let’s also remember that the burgers, shakes, fries, friedchicken, and all things alike will only make your life more busier in the future: either by more frequent gym trips because you can’t get your body right, or more frequent doctor trips because now you have a chronic disease. Yes, no matter how busy we all get, we MUST remember the 80-20 rule: 80% healthy/clean diet and 20% cheating. (Feel free to tip the scales toward eating clean though lol). With that said, I know restaurants can over-season and over-saturate their food with grease and salt; but you can stick to healthier options on every menu. But if sitting in Wendy’s drive thru for a salad is not your style, below are the restaurants that have helped me stay on the healthy track through med school and residency. Enjoy!
