Great dinner at Applebees

My wife and I have been on this site for about 3 weeks. We have a busy lifestyle with 3 kids and always on the go. We saw the ad for Applebees 550 calories or less dinner so we gave it a try. Oh, by the way on Wednesday nights kids eat for $.99 cents. How great was that!!! I had the peppercorn steak with potatoes and steemed veggies for 550 calories. Portion size was pretty small but I got my steak craving in without breaking the calorie bank. My wife had the shrimp and island rice for only 280 calories. It was a great option for us. I would give it a try if you want something new and light on both pocketbook and calories. Only down side to my steak was it had a lot of fat. I still did not go over my fat goal for the day. Enjoy....

Thanks! I saw an ad for those the other day and wondered if they were good. Maybe I will have to try it out.

I love Applebee's! I was shocked when I saw how many calories are in my favorite meal.

Good to know! I've been doing some research and have been shocked to find out how many calories are in even some of the "smart" choices from a lot of my favorite restaurants. I'll definitely keep this choice in mind!

Has anyone tried the southwest chicken salad at Red Robin? It looks so good but I coun't find any nutrition info because it is limited time item.
