Qdoba is a Mexican restaurant chain that I was recently introduced to. I am not a fan of spicy food, in fact I may be the biggest wuss there is when it comes to hot foods, but I LOVE Qdoba because they allow you to choose the level of spice, or order something that has no "kick" at all.
I love Qdoba for so many reasons. Their food is fresh, wholesome and is easy to customize for specific dietary needs or preferences. Qdoba allows customers to pick and choose what they want on their - Quesadilla, tacos, burritos, salad etc. You could choose chicken, pork, beef, steak or vegetarian. I always get the chicken burrito with black beans, sour cream, cheese, lettuce and guacamole, and it is absolutely delicious!!! Again, let me reiterate, if you don't like spicy foods (like me) you will still absolutely love eating at Qdoba because you can choose the level or spice, or lack of spice in my case. So if you are a wuss like me, or love the super spicy jalapeno flavors they have something for everyone and every palette!
I wanted to feature Qdoba in my New Year New You Series because they have so many healthy alternatives to "fast food" or lunches/dinners on a time crunch. Whether you want to cut carbs, reduce calories or lower your fat intake they have the perfect option. For a lower calorie option they offer the Naked Burritos® and Naked Taco Salads™, which contain all of the delicious ingredients in our burritos and taco salads — just without the tortilla or tortilla bowl. By simply ordering a Naked meal, you've cut 330 calories and 54 grams of carbs. If you're looking to reduce carbs or calories even more, skip the rice or don't order chips. And if you want to reduce fat, just say no to cheese and opt for pork — the leanest protein on the menu.
