While we here at HIIT HARTā¢ advocate for cooking your own meals, we understand that you’re gonna be eating out from time to time.
As part of our HART SMARTā¢ program, we’ve gone ahead and put together three meal options at some of the most popular fast food chains around that met the following three requirements:
- The meal had to include a main item, a side (when possible) and a beverage
- The meal couldn’t have more than 600 calories
- The meal couldn’t have more than 5 grams of saturated fat
Now we want to reiterate that the objective of the HART SMARTā¢ program is to empower you with the knowledge to make better choices when you do decide to eat out.
Below you’ll find the three McDonald’s HART SMART menu options we’ve put together.
