Choose My Chomp! Chili's edition

I NEVER go here but must today in my duties as a PTA style mom. I don't even know what's good there?

Anyone eat here and can think of something within 300-500 cals that is good? Honestly I am strongly considering ordering a cocktail when I'm there but it will be the afternoon. Wonder if they have smoothies?

    They have a light menu.
    I normally get the light salmon, or black bean burger. I think they have skinny cocktails too.

    wonder how many cal's are in a skinny? and how long it takes to wear off the alcohol. and if i do a little walking after. and if I pop some tags and have bags to carry after. how many cals are in shopping, that's a good question!

    lol, after seeing some of the things that mfp has stored away it wouldn’t surprise me if they have a caloric value assigned to shopping, probably one for window shopping, normal shopping and vigorous shopping :p

    I ate there last night!

    I had the six ounce sirloin with double broccoli. That should fit into your calorie goal.

    The 6oz steak 250 calories should go real well with a skinny drink =) have fun!

    I have had this and I like it. It's a decent enough portion for very low cal.

    Thanks for all the suggestions I ended up having the 6 oz. sirloin with salsa topping & broccoli sides. It was way better than I expected and my friend said she was surprised how good her salad was too, it had avocado and chicken on it.
