\"\"<\/a>We’ve been doing these fast-food healthiest meal listings based on our\u00a0registered dietitian Rebecca Scritchfield\u2019s<\/a> healthy guidelines of having less than 500 calories and less than 500 milligrams of sodium per meal, according to the\u00a0the\u00a0new daily sodium recommendations<\/a><\/strong>. And, generally, we’ve been able to find a few options at all of the fast-food chains thus far. Today is a challenge though. We’re looking at Arby’s, and while there are a number of options that fit the calorie requirement, the sodium is just ridiculous. Having just a sandwich or a salad will put you at more than half of what you’re supposed to get in a day. For real.\u00a0So with some creativity (because we really can’t tell you to eat a Jr. Shake for lunch just because it’s low in salt), we’ve come up with the following healthiest items.<\/p>\n

Healthiest Meals at Arby’s<\/strong><\/p>\n

1. Half of a Roast Chicken Sandwich with Half of a Chopped Side Salad.<\/strong> This protein-filled pairing has 270 calories and 485 milligrams of sodium. Told you we had to get creative!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

2. Half of a Chopped Farmhouse Salad with Turkey and Ham.<\/strong> The key to enjoying this salad is to either eat it sans dressing or to bring your own no-sodium dressing from home. With just 125 calories it is a tiny lunch, but with 455 milligrams of sodium in just half, you’re pretty limited. Pair it with an apple to help fill you up!<\/p>\n

3. Half of a Chopped Farmhouse Chicken Salad — Roast with Half of a Packet of Dijon Honey Mustard Dressing.<\/strong> Also with 125 calories, this half salad is low enough in sodium that you can pair it with half a packet of dressing. Hooray! This half salad comes in at 215 calories and 470 milligrams of sodium.<\/p>\n

Are you shocked that this was the only options that met our criteria?<\/p>\n
