Friday's breakfast... Nowadays I just have plain oatmeal and coffee with a bit of milk and sugar for breakfast. I left my lunch bag at work yesterday with my thermos for oatmeal and coffee mug :( I thought this would be a good opportunity to treat myself to something different for breakfast - it is Friday after all. So I stopped at McDonald's on the way to work and got their "Fruit & Walnut Snack with Lowfat Yogurt". I wanted to try it so I know whether it is a good option if I ever have a craving to eat out, need a snack on the go when I am traveling, etc... I have read several articles on-line with suggestions on how to eat healthy at fast-food restaurants. I just thought I would give some of them a try. It is really nice to prep your meals at home, but once in a while you find yourself in a situation where it is more convenient to purchase something or just want something a little different.
My verdict: I would probably give it 6 out of 10. The apples slices and grapes are just that. The yogurt was creamy, but a bit too sweet.  And the walnuts were candied. I would've liked it better (and I am not only talking about taste but also nutrition) if the walnuts were not covered in sugar and the yogurt was not so sweet... I would have it again unless I find something better.
I'd like to try Chicken Fajita Pita from Jack in the Box  next.
