Muscle Maker Grill: Healthy Fast Food Alternative From the Dirty Jerz

So last night, after our 12 mile run, Brad and I headed to the MUSCLE MAKER GRILL in Wall, NJ for some post-run fuel. Grrr. Argh. Ahhh. Sorry, had to throw in some juicehead grunts. However, I was pleasantly surprised with my rather large "healthy" meal. I got the MMG Signature Wrap which is chicken, turkey bacon, romaine, red onions, tomatoes, and their 0 carb signature sauce (I'm thinking mayo with olive oil, sugar-free ketchup, a little bit of dry mustard... something along those lines). Plus, we both chose to get the steamed broccoli (nothing on it) on the side. The wrap was delicious, albeit a tad spicy for Brad, but I loved it. And they also have salads, whole wheat pastas, and protein-packed ice cream and smoothies.

Can't you just see my bulging biceps and tremendous triceps?

Anyway, food was delicious, they substitute all the right ingredients (romaine for iceberg, low fat cheese instead of American, whole wheat/brown vs white, low fat sour cream...) and you don't feel disgusting when you leave. Even if you imbibe a chocolate muscle maker shake (which I loved). Plus, you choose whether you're going for low carb, heavy protein, or just low calorie. All options are available depending on your dietary needs/beliefs.
