I just got Chili's to-go at my work and split the $20 for an app, 2 entrees, and 1 dessert.

Well, I just tasted the appetizers- had a guiltless bean burger and broccoli (no bun)..

Then, came the CHOCOLATE MOLTEN CAKE. I figured..eh, I'll eat my half and it won't be too bad. Luckily, I logged onto MFP (and Chili's to verify) and the calories in 1 one of those puppies is: 1010!!!

It says this is for 1 slice- so not sure if that is the whole dessert or just a piece of it..

Well, I am not going back into our breakroom.. I will avoid all temptation. Just a warning to you all:noway:

Happy Wednesday all!!!

    I work at chili's- try dodging bullets everyday! :tongue: 1010 is for the whole choclate molten cake. Chili's has some things on the menu that are very bad for your, and some things that are really good! Try the chicken pita with vegetables instead of fries, and the margarita grilled chicken- yum!
  • You can go to the Chili's website and they have the nutrition information on all their foods. I be sure to visit it and decide what I'm going to eat before I go!

    Oh yeah- they have tons of stuff that is good for you. I am a vegetarian and would not want the chicken part though:)

    I do love Chili's...just need to avoid the desserts!! Is the 1010 for the entire order of Chocolate Molten cake and ice cream??

    yes
  • Don't forget, if you want to treat yourself and really want a dessert, you can always go for one of their sweet shots. They're about 300 calories which is high but not for a dessert and they are YUMMY

    Those are awesome! I usually split one with my daughter!
