Another Whole30 fast food meal he recommends is the green apples, egg, mild Cheddar cheese, and cashews snack box for the same reason. If you’re looking to replace the cheese with something, White suggests a seasonal fruit cup with oranges, and bananas.
Remind me: what are the Whole30 diet rules? “The Whole 30 diet is a 30-day program filled with nutrient-dense foods that consist of meat, seafood, eggs, vegetables, fruits, natural fats, herbs, spices and seasonings,” says Jim White, RD, ACSM, and owner of Jim White Fitness Nutrition Studios.
Order the protein like chicken or steak plain, along with fresh salsa, plain fajita veggies and guacamole,” suggests Stark. Or keep it super simple and order on one of their Whole30 approved menu items including the Whole30 Salad Bowl with Chicken, Carne Asada or Carnitas.
“Apple slices. These are just apples and calcium ascorbate, which is technically not Whole30-compliant because it’s a food additive, but it does contain whole foods that have minimal processing,” says Samuels.

Breakfast sandwich. If you’re on the go in the mornings, there is one option for breakfast. “The breakfast sandwich, but ask for no cheese and no croissant or bread. This will just be eggs and meat, certainly not a well-rounded meal, but if you want breakfast this is the closest to whole 30 compliant,” explains Samuels.
Don’t fret, because there is another salad option to fill you up. “The kale crunch salad is probably the best salad option, although the dressing is made with soybean oil, there is no added sugar,” says Samuels.
Whole 30 at Chipotle. Both Samuels and Starks agree that Chipotle is probably the best place to grab food on the go. “Chipotle even lets you search for menu items based on ingredients you would like to avoid. Their meats don’t have any added sugar although some do contain seeds oils and the sofritas has soybeans.
While you can’t have fries as a side , you can get more veggies instead. “Ask for no crispy bell peppers and no cheese. See if they have olive oil or balsamic vinegar (not vinaigrette) to use as a salad dressing,” suggests Samuels.
Stark says to make sure to order it without the bun and to say no to the lemon herb marinade or honey roasted barbecue sauce. You can keep the tomato and lettuce!
Oven-Roasted Subs or Signature Wraps. “The oven-Roasted Subs or Signature Wraps are another option, but order without the bread/wrap, no cheese and again, no condiments or dressings besides red wine vinegar,” says Samuels.
What is Whole30’s favorite food?
He likes the apples, egg, white Cheddar cheese, and almonds snack box (again, sans cheese), because “all these ingredients are fresh and have no additives.”. Another Whole30 fast food meal he recommends is the green apples, egg, mild Cheddar cheese, and cashews snack box for the same reason.
Like Chili’s, the steaks at Outback are also Whole30-compliant so long as you order them sans sauce and butter. Same with the restaurant’s grilled salmon. Order some steamed vegetables to complete the meal, but make sure you ask for them plain because Outback typically cooks its greens in butter. You can ask for some lemon slices on the side to add a bit of zing to your steamed broccoli.
Luckily White says some restaurants, such as In-N-Out and Five Guys, don’t season their meat, which means they meet the Whole30 requirements. Beware alternative milks: These can be a source of added sugars and other additives that aren’t Whole30-compliant.
As far as the Whole30 diet is concerned, these don’t make the cut.
Butter isn’t allowed on the Whole30 diet ( though ghee is) so it’s best to just double-check that whatever you order is sans butter. Choose steamed over seasoned: While ordering vegetables might seem like the diet-friendly thing to do, the veggies must be free of seasonings, sauces, and butter.
There are plenty of Whole30 fast food options you can order. We reached out to nutrition experts and registered dietitians to put together a list of 10 Whole30-compliant fast food orders so you can stick to your healthy diet when you’re on the go.
Truth be told, the fast-food counter isn’t exactly known for being diet-friendly, especially when the diet in question has its fair-share of dos and dont’s, but that doesn’t mean you have to avoid eating out at a fast-casual restaurant chain all together.
