At most burrito places (Chipolte, Qdoba, etc.) you can actually eat pretty healthy.
No tortilla/beans/rice
-
Meat, Fajita veggies, Pico de Gallo, lettuce, tomatoe, guacamole (optional)
Low-carb, delicious, and fairly low calorie.0 -

I love Chipotle, but have to skip out on the tortilla and sour cream0

Panera Bread Turkey with Avocado BLT Sandwich (whole) - mustard instead of mayo, on whole grain. Apple and pickle spear on the side. 357 calories, 44g protein, 16g fat (but 2/3 of that is the healthy monounsaturated kind from the avocado), 13g fiber. I am shamelessly addicted to avocados and try to work them into my diet as much as possible.
Chipotle Sofritas (Tofu) Bowl - corn salsa, romaine lettuce, pinto beans, brown rice. (The sofritas is pretty well seasoned so it's definitely not bland.) 477 calories, 18g protein, 18g fat (1/2 monounsaturated), 18g fiber, 1/3 daily allowance for iron.0 -
Jimmy johns Pepe is around 500 (ham and cheese). Mr goodcents and subway have their nutrition info available as well so it would be easy to find something that fits your calories.
Chipotle is a good one, if you can save half for later, or you could just get 2 tacos instead of a whole burrito or bowl.
Panera is a good one. I went there yesterday. I got half a turkey avocado Blt (250 cals) and half a Caesar salad (160 I think?) the sandwich was actually pretty good, too.

Chickfila! 8 piece chicken nuggets (270 cals), some kind of sauce (let's say bbq at 45 cals), and a medium fruit cup (50 cals). sodium is killer but 28g of protein for the 8 piece, 41g protein and 400 cals for the 12 piece.0

IHOP simple and fit pancakes with bananas, egg beaters, turkey bacon, and sugar free syrup. Cheddars sweet heat chicken and shrimp. Cracker Barrel apple cider chicken with broccoli and sweet potato. Cracker Barrel yogurt parfait with egg beaters and turkey bacon. Chic fil a kids meal grilled nuggets, fruit cup and diet lemonade for a snack or small lunch. Grilled chicken sandwich there if have more calories. I eat those with buffalo sauce. McDonald's jalepeno double, add a yogurt parfait if you have closer to 600 calories.0
