8 Healthy Subway Orders For When You're on the Go

While we'll always encourage you to cook at home and to choose fresh, healthful meals, we all know that life can get in the way - sometimes you end up stuck with fast food as your only option. And if that's the case and you happen to find yourself at Subway, you're in luck! With antibiotic-free meats and a bounty of veggies on offer, it's a solid choice when you're in a bind. These eight tasty options are surprisingly nutritious, and each selection is easy to deconstruct and see exactly what you're getting in your order.

A few general pointers and order hacks:

• Remember to add spinach to your sandwich - it's basically like getting kale, but at a fast-food joint


• While adding avocado will increase your fat (they're healthy fats!), it'll also be an exponential addition of vitamin C


• Avoid high-sugar and high-fat condiments when possible; opt for mustard or vinegar, if not simply avocado and maybe a little salt and pepper


• Swap your side of chips for apple slices, and opt for a water instead of a soda
