It happens: every once in a while a low-carb dieter can't pack a lunch or is in a rush to produce dinner, and a fast food restaurant is easy, quick, and convenient to help produce a meal for one or for an entire family. But finding low-carb options at fast food restaurants can be tricky. This short guide provides some healthy meal ideas for those following a low-carb diet.

Fast Food Burger Chains Low-Carb Meals

There are more meal choices at fast food franchise restaurants like McDonald's, Wendy's, and Burger King than the obvious salads for low-carb diet plans. Try a grilled chicken breast sandwich with mayonnaise but without the bun, or of course any burger without the bun works as well. Look out for salad dressings that contain sugar (mayo is better for low-carb diets), and limit ketchup for the same reason as well.

Make any burger or chicken choice more satisfying by adding cheese, bacon, or jalapeños, and load up on mustard, pickles, onions, and tomato for added flavor with minor amounts of carbohydrates and calories. If a craving strikes for nuggets, try to peel off most of the breading and don't use any sweet dipping sauces. When ordering salads, eliminate any croutons, carrots, and fruit pieces. And of course, no fries.
