It was the documentary Forks Over Knives (2011) along with my compassion for all animals that inspired my vegan journey.  I was already a practicing pescatarian, so the transition to becoming vegan was smooth.  And, with so many appetizing vegan food options, I never feel I sacrifice nutrition nor taste.  Below you will find a handful of my favorite savory vegan eats and a bonus recipe! Try them...vegan or omnivore...

Burger versus Salad

I give credit to Wendy's for making salads a big part of the fast food chain's menu.  The burger joint just rolled out four new "premium" salad choices -- adding to the existing four choices.  So salad eaters have 8 choices. Panera Bread is another fast-causal eatery that showcases salads.  And with research lambasting frequent burger eating, substituting a tasty salad for a burger *can* be good for the body -- if you pick the right salad.

And that is the point of this post:  How good/healthy are fast food chain salads?
