Gas Station food Review

Have you ever walked into a gas station on the go and wondered what am I going to eat here that is remotely healthy? 

If you travel, then you probably have.  I got news for all you travelers.  There are healthy options out there!  Yay!  

The good news is that most of these items won't break the bank either.

Here's my list:

Snacks

  1. Beef Jerky-  Yes to protein and low carbs!  Pick up your favorite brand.  I like Scotty's of course some brands are a little pricy.
  2. Boiled Eggs-  Usually in the cooler with salads and sandwiches these are a protein packed treat!
  3. String cheese- Nutritious dairy in a small slender package. 
  4. Protein Bars- I like cliff bars, but most of these are low on carbs and high on energy and protein. 
Drinks
  1. Diet Soda-  When you want the bubbly without the calories, Diet Mt. Dew is my favorite.
  2. Calorie Free Energy Drinks-  Need a boost?  Monster, Bang, or Rockstar all have tasty options.
  3. Protein Drinks- My personal favorite is Fair Life.
  4. Sugar Free teas- Snapple has some diet flavors I enjoy like peach, there are a number of others that have a delicious flavor.
Meals (not a whole lot of options here)
  1. salads-  Ceasar, garden, chicken salads all available at Maverick & some 7 Elevens.
  2. wraps- Chicken wraps are great however if your avoiding carbs the tortilla is not as healthy an option.
  3. Sandwiches- Wheat bread with turkey is a great option, there are others that are low in calories, you would have to read the labels if you are looking for low carb.
So there you have it folks.  I know this list is far from complete and as I stated earlier these are just a few healthy options I have grabbed on the go while traveling.  I would be happy to hear any other options you might have in the comments😉
