Applebees A+
Have you tried the Applebee’s “Under 550” Entrees? I must say…I don’t usually get too hyped up over the latest marketing schemes of these chain restaurant giants, but this time I was truly impressed! With three young kids in tote and my ordering time clock ticking away fast, I decided to give this “no brainer” a try. What I relief I felt to just be able to pick from a few choices without having to do the usual nutrition number crunching in my head just to order a healthy lunch!
I went for the Grilled Dijon Chicken with Portobello Mushrooms. It was a tender chicken breast topped with roasted red peppers, Portobello mushrooms, Dijon sauce, and cheddar cheese. It was served with just a bit of roasted red potatoes, and seasoned broccoli and carrot mix.
I ordered…..I ate….and I moved on with my life… without any guilt. As a nutrition nut, I would still prefer to access the nutrition information on the website…but we have to start somewhere! Kudos Applebee’s! I’ll be back to try another entrée soon!
