Lose weight, eat fast food!

What better way to lose weight than to eat take out? For the folks out there who couldn't throw a healthy meal together if it came pre-packaged in a bag, (i.e. salad) so it's only smart to offer healthier alternatives at fast food joints. Get in line for Taco Time's Fit Hit bowls.


At 266 calories and a measly 1g of fat, this is such a hearty option that I not once envied my dad's burrito + taco and side combo.


What seems like a small portion of Mexican rice is smothered in cooked black beans, corn, fresh lettuce, loads of tomatoes, carrots, red cabbage, diced red onions, and cilantro.

What about a salad dressing you say? The delicious flavoring of the Mexican rice only needs a dab of spicy salsa, ever so conveniently placed where any other Mickey D's would keep the ketchup, in pumps!

It's not that I'm counting the cals here, but this was so fresh, filling, tasty and satisfying, that I'd easily eat this on a weekly basis... if only we had Taco Time North of the border! This one was spotted near Everett, Washington, on the way to the Boeing Assembly factory.
