Eat the Charbroiled Chicken Salad which has 260 calories, 7g of fat and 16g of carbs. The most fattening salad on the menu is the Chipotle Chicken Salad served in a crispy tortilla shell bowl, which is 880 calories, 57g of fat and 51g of carbs and comes with a Chipotle dressing.

2

Remove the croutons from your salad. If you do, you will save yourself an additional 70 calories, 3g of fat and 8g of carbs.

3

Choose a fat-free salad dressing with your Charbroiled Chicken Salad. They have two fat-free choices available, the fat-free Italian with 15 calories and 4g of carbs per packet and and the fat-free French at 60 calories and 16g of carbs. They have one low-fat dressing which is the Balsamic at 35 calories, 2g of fat and 5g of carbs.

4

Have your meal with a diet coke which has no calories, fat or carbs or unsweetened iced tea which has only five calories and no fat or carbs.

5

Order the 6-piece chicken stars for the kids, which have 250 calories, 16g of fat and 14g of carbs. Substitute the side salad for the fries to make your child's meal more nutritional. The fries have 250 calories, 12g of fat and 32g of carbs for the kid's portion, and the salad has 50 calories, 3g fat and 5g of carbs. If you put a regular fatty dressing on your kid's salad, they are no better off than eating fries because the calorie, fat and carb content will be about the same if not more. So, use the fat-free dressings if they will eat it.
