You can still enjoy Taco Bell in moderation even if you're watching your waistline. Dietitians reveal how to get the most nutrition in your fast food whenever you're looking to 'live mas.'
If you have a craving for Mexican food, Taco Bell could be a better bet for your waistline than you think — as long as you know how to navigate the chain’s menu. 'Taco Bell has become a frontrunner in healthy fast-food restaurants,' Jen Hernandez, a Kentucky-based registered dietitian nutritionist, who is the founder and CEO of Plant-Powered Kidneys Inc., told Fox News Digital. 'They focus on including more fresh plants, plant proteins and low-sodium options,' she said.
Fox News Digital reached out to Taco Bell for comment. Black Bean Soft Taco Hernandez recommends that soft taco aficionados choose the Black Bean Soft Taco with cheese, tomatoes, onions and lettuce. WHAT YOU SHOULD ORDER AT SUBWAY, ACCORDING TO NUTRITION EXPERTS 'It has just 390 milligrams of sodium but still packs five grams of fiber,' she said, commenting that this amount is 20% of your daily fiber needs, from just one taco.
She pointed out that ordering the menu selection that way gives you 12 grams of protein and 15 grams of fiber for under 650 calories. For more Lifestyle articles, visit www.foxnews.com/lifestyle.
