For a healthier breakfast, skip the drive-thru.

My favorite low-calorie, on-the-go meal is from Subway.  I get an egg white and mozzarella cheese (easy on the cheese) English muffin.  I add spinach, tomato, green pepper, onion and salt and pepper.  That is a whole serving of veggies there!  I also add just a few drops of fat-free honey mustard.  This sandwich comes in at right around 150 calories!  You can get TWO egg white and cheese melts at Subway for the same amount of calories of ONE egg and cheese muffin (300 calories) at McDonalds.  Um, not a difficult choice.

You can even add in a bag of baked Lays (130 calories) and still be under the calories you would consume at McDonalds.  280 calories at Subway vs 300 calories at McDonalds.

Not a fan of the vegetarian option?  The meat-based egg white muffin sandwiches at Subway are all under 220 calories each.

Remember:

• choose egg white, not egg.
• no condiments, sauces or dressings.  If you want them, get them on the side and add just a tiny amount.
• go easy on the cheese.

Subway serves breakfast food all day long.  YAY!  More fast food calorie hacks coming in the near future.  Send me some of your favorite fast food meals and I will help you find ways to make them as healthy as possible.
