10 of America's healthiest restaurants

It's not easy sitting at home and preparing every single meal of the week. Even the people who love to handle their own food may find a day that demands eating out. But where to go? There are so many flawed menus in the food industry that it makes choosing a healthy establishment feel like playing the lottery.

Enter America's top 15 healthiest restaurants as chosen by Health magazine. Some of the eateries may surprise you by being on the list! For example, Denny's brought up the bottom of the pack thanks to their Fit Fare menu featuring items that are 15 grams of fat or less. The editor's pick for their favorite choice off this menu was the Grilled Chicken Breast Salad.

P.F. Chang's also made the cut partly thanks to their carb-free vegetarian lettuce wraps. The other contributing factors were their use of whole grain rice, all-natural chicken, and reduced sodium sauces. These are not the only reasons, but you can bet they're not loading you up with excessive fat and preservatives. Criteria for these restaurants included how they prepared the food, the trans-fat content, portion control and other nutritional factors.
