No dairy, lots of veggies and spices I like! There's something about fish sauce that makes everything amazing...</p> <p>For lower fat/calories I like Baja Fresh because you can get burritos without the tortilla on a bed of salad. Or salad bowls in general. Not bad, I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650101 Wed, 21 May 2014 17:20:15 +0000 lawbee11 1650101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>McDonald's with a diet coke? :silly: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650100 Wed, 21 May 2014 17:19:01 +0000 pinkcupcake 1650100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Vietnamese!

May have to give it a try one of these days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650082 Wed, 21 May 2014 17:08:54 +0000 MrsH 1650082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Freshii!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650078 Wed, 21 May 2014 17:06:16 +0000 regberadaisy 1650078@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another option is Italian for a local family Italian place. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650072 Wed, 21 May 2014 17:03:58 +0000 allison 1650072@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Chipotle! Hands-down. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650048 Wed, 21 May 2014 16:53:37 +0000 Mommy Finger 1650048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cascademom: I miss Pockets so much! That place is delicious! </p> <p>If you want delivery, I would look on GrubHub to see what places deliver and go from there. I am also obsessed with Chipotle and the way I order, it's actually decently healthy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650030 Wed, 21 May 2014 16:42:55 +0000 Tidybee 1650030@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We used to just order salads or turkey burgers from local bars/restaurants. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650006 Wed, 21 May 2014 16:33:06 +0000 cascademom 1650006@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I order Mediterranean as a healthier choice. Do you have a Pockets near you? I always consider them a healthier option when I have a chance. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650004 Wed, 21 May 2014 16:32:07 +0000 regberadaisy 1650004@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We do Mediterranean / Greek, <i>real</i> Chinese, Thai or Vietnamense (Pho, grilled pork w broken rice, etc).<br /> Or soup and sandwich from a local shop. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/healthier-take-out-options#post-1650002 Wed, 21 May 2014 16:30:35 +0000 Meridian 1650002@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>These days, not being in the mood to cook is becoming a common occurrence. But I don't want to order pizza or junk food all the time... nor do I want to order a salad (boring!). </p> <p>So what do you choose when you order take out, but don't want it to be completely terrible for you? For reference, I live in Chicago, and have Italian, Chinese, Thai, Indian, American, Mexican options all in close proximity. </p>
