The Drive-Thru - Breakfast on the Road

Hi IsaFriends,

OK, I'll admit it. I love to hit the drive-thru for breakfast at the start of a road trip. Can we do it and stay on plan? Yes! Here's where and what you can choose...

Bacon, Egg and Cheese McGriddle, Hash Browns – 560 cal

All this Fast Food restaurants have some kind of Build a Meal on their sites. Some even allow you to easily add and subtract things like cheese, bacon, etc. If you want to sit down, there are more choices like oatmeal, yogurt, hotcakes and platters.

Don’t make it a habit… but how often do you go on a road trip?
