Sandwiches has become one of our daily morning meal, grab some grilled cheese and turkey – we can now gobbled the whole turkey and then reach the morning light…or grab another one.
But how does these sandwiches a not so good for me, maybe it was the onion sauteed in butter?, no it’s not…it the calories I look at. It may look easy to make and delicious to eat but it's the calories that I worried about!
After eating at Chilli’s, here is what I found in consuming their fried chicken sandwich.
Chili’s Cajun Crisper Bites Sandwich
1,410 calories
79 g fat (18 g saturated)
124 g carbs
3,930 mg sodium
Words on the Chili’s menu to avoid: “Cajun” and “Crisper.” In Chili’s land, they translate to fat- and calorie-packed sauces and frying oil. Put them between two slices of bread, and you’ve got the worst sandwiches you’ve eaten—with the sodium equivalent of 120 saltine crackers and the same number of calories as you’ll find in 56 strips of bacon. Taste the same bold flavors and save more than 1,000 calories and 2,000 milligrams of sodium by opting for the Fajita Pita instead.
Try this instead…

So, tell me what sandwich your munching at now?
