Just in case you find yourself at a fast food drive thru this summer...

There's a new "Value Menu" at one of the top fast food chains - Taco Bell. If you can find a dollar in change in your car or in the bottom of your purse, you have enough dough to buy yourself an item on their value menu.

Here are the 4 more "healthful" options with the lowest in % calories from fat listed first:

Bean Burrito (99 cents) with 23% calories from fat, 350 calories, 9 grams fat, 3.5 grams saturated fat, 8 grams fiber, 1190 mg sodium.

1/2 lb. Cheesy Bean and Rice Burrito (99 cents) with 38% calories from fat, 470 calories, 20 grams fat, 5 grams saturated fat, 6 grams fiber, 1390 mg sodium.

Soft Taco (89 cents) with 40% calories from fat, 200 calories, 9 grams fat, 4 grams saturated fat, 3 grams fiber, 630 mg sodium.

Cheesy Roll-up (79 cents) with 45% calories from fat, 200 calories, 10 grams fat, 5 grams saturated fat, 1 gram fiber, 490 mg sodium.

Thanks for the info, but honestly I gotta have more than just one bean burrito. I wonder how many bean and cheese burritos are equivalent to a couple Gorditas. Those are definitely a guilty pleasure.

Still love Taco Bell but I haven't been dropping by lately 'cause I haven't been craving for fast food like I did before. I was pretty ravenous a couple of months back. I haven't been the hungry lioness I was before. Visit my blog and you'll know what I'm up to. Smile

Good to know, though, that when I pass by Taco Bell, I still have low-cal options.

Hi, just keep an eye on the sodium, on the Bean Burrito and Cheesy Bean, that's almost the your daily intake.

I'd say stay away from the carbs like flour and rice and drink water
